Ever Lovely Attacked Near Oman

A cargo ship flagged in Singapore reports being struck by a projectile near Oman, sparking immediate international concern as U.S. officials point to Iran—possibly via drone—as the likely culprit. The attack comes just hours after Iran warned ships against using unapproved routes, prompting the UN’s maritime agency to halt its escort operations through the Strait of Hormuz. This critical chokepoint, vital for global oil and gas flows, is now under heightened threat as Iran insists only its designated routes will be safe. Despite a recent U.S.-backed voluntary evacuation plan, the targeted vessel wasn’t part of it, underscoring the escalating risks. With global energy markets and U.S. elections looming, the future of Iran’s control over the Strait—and the stability of international trade—hangs in the balance.
