  "account": "Two Singapore-registered container vessels were involved in an incident where unknown projectiles struck them in the Strait of Hormuz, leading to one sinking and the other sustaining damage. The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore reported that all 43 crew members from the vessels managed to evacuate safely, with no injuries reported. MPA expressed deep concern over continued attacks on commercial ships in the strait, deeming such actions as unprovoked, unjustifiable, and a breach of international law. The vessels, GFS Pride and GFS Giselle, were struck on consecutive days, with the former sinking due to a fire and extensive damage to its hull. The incidents occurred amidst a rise in attacks on commercial vessels navigating the crucial shipping route.",
