Bulk Carrier Attacked Near Strait of Hormuz, UK Military Reports
All crew were reported safe as the British military said the attack was carried out by multiple small craft and warned ships to transit with caution.
- A bulk carrier near the Strait of Hormuz reported being attacked by multiple small craft on Sunday, marking at least two dozen attacks in and around the strait since the Iran war began.
- Iranian officials assert they continue to control the strait, maintaining that ships not affiliated with the United States or Israel may pass only if they pay a toll.
- The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations center stated the vessel was attacked roughly 11 nautical miles west of Sirik, Iran, with all crew members remaining safe after the incident.
- Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned Iran has received less than $1.3 million in tolls, a pittance compared to prior oil revenues, while the U.S. naval blockade since April 13 deprives Tehran of critical revenue.
- President Donald Trump expressed doubt regarding a new 14-point Iranian proposal seeking a 30-day resolution, stating they "have not yet paid a big enough price" for actions since the Islamic Revolution.
