Three cargo ships hit by projectiles in the Hormuz Strait

Three cargo vessels were struck by unidentified projectiles in the Hormuz Strait amidst escalating tensions following the onset of the Iran conflict.

On Wednesday, three cargo ships were struck by unidentified projectiles while traversing the Hormuz Strait, a critical maritime route. This incident follows an increasing trend of attacks on commercial vessels in the region, with at least 14 ships reported to have been targeted since the conflict involving Iran began. The heightened hostilities have led to a virtual halt of maritime traffic in the strait, following airstrikes initiated by the United States and Israel on February 28 against Iranian positions.
