A tanker has been struck by unknown projectiles about 78 nautical miles north of Fujairah, according to a report from UK Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO).
The incident took place at around 19:40 UTC on 3 May, UKMTO said in an alert. The vessel reported being hit, but all crew were confirmed safe and no environmental impact has been identified.
Authorities are investigating the incident, which occurred in waters near the strategic approaches to the Strait of Hormuz.
UKMTO has advised vessels operating in the area to exercise caution and to report any suspicious activity.
The warning comes amid ongoing security concerns in the wider Gulf region, a key corridor for global oil and marine fuel flows.
