The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) Center has issued two separate advisories following reports of attacks on commercial vessels transiting outbound through the Strait of Hormuz.
Both vessels were reportedly struck by one-way attack drones (UAVs). In both incidents, all crew members are reported safe, and no environmental impact or pollution has been reported.
