UK Maritime Trade Operations organization announced that 42 percent of the ships currently listed by the Islamic Republic as “non-compliant” have been involved in maritime incidents in the Persian Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz, and the Gulf of Oman.

In a report published on Friday, 22 Aban, this center reviews regional events from the start of the war on 9 Esfand 1404 to 20 Aban 1405.

According to this report, in the seven days leading up to 20 Aban, seven attacks on oil tankers were recorded. A projectile impact on an oil tanker in the Persian Gulf led to several people being injured, and an attack on another tanker’s engine room near Ras Al Khaimah resulted in a fire and the evacuation of the crew.

The center also reported that since 15 Tir, most cases of projectile strikes on ships along the southern route of the Strait of Hormuz have occurred.

Based on the joint maritime information center’s assessment, the threat level in the Strait of Hormuz remains “severe,” meaning that the likelihood of an attack is assessed as high. Ship traffic through this strait is also about 65 percent lower than before the war.
