Second Tanker Attack: Marshall Islands-Flagged MKD Vyom Struck by Projectile Off Oman Coast

A Marshall Islands-flagged crude oil tanker, MKD Vyom, was hit and damaged by a projectile off the coast of Oman, according to maritime security sources cited by Reuters, marking the second tanker attack in the region within hours of the Skylight incident. The UK Maritime Trade Operations Centre (UKMTO) reported the vessel was struck approximately 50 miles south of the earlier Skylight attack location near the Strait of Hormuz. The back-to-back attacks signal a sustained IRGC campaign against commercial shipping following Iran's declared closure of the strait.
