DUBAI, June 27 — An oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz was struck and damaged by an “unidentified projectile”, British maritime security agency UKMTO said today, following the first exchange of fire between the US and Iran since their deal to end the Middle East war.
“The vessel sustained damage to their bridge; all crew are reported safe,” UKMTO said, while another British marine security firm, Vanguard Tech, said the vessel was the Panama-flagged tanker KIKU.
Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, the ideological arm of the military, announced today that they had attacked American positions in the Gulf after US strikes on Iran. — AFP
