ADNOC Logistics and Services confirmed on Tuesday that one of its vessels sustained damage in an attack in the Persian Gulf, in UAE territorial waters, on Tuesday afternoon, in a statement carried by the WAM news agency and reported by gCaptain. The company gave no details on the vessel’s identity, the extent of the damage, or whether any crew were injured, and said response operations were ongoing.

The confirmation came the same day UK Maritime Trade Operations reported a tanker struck by an unidentified projectile 19 nautical miles northeast of Lima, Oman, at 13:38 UTC, with the crew safe and no environmental impact reported. gCaptain, reporting both, states it is not immediately clear whether the ADNOC incident and the UKMTO strike are connected or separate attacks, and the locations reported differ, UAE territorial waters on one account and the Omani side of the Hormuz approaches on the other. They are carried here as separate reports until a source establishes otherwise.
