The United Arab Emirates accused Iran of attacking a tanker owned by ADNOC while it was transiting the Strait of Hormuz. Emirati state media said the incident happened Friday evening and caused no injuries. The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations center separately reported that a bulk carrier was hit by an unknown projectile in the same area.
The report said shipping in the strait has been disrupted since the broader conflict began, with the waterway carrying a large share of the world's traded oil and gas before the war. It also said U.S.-Iran talks have stalled while Iran has been discussing the passageway with Oman.
In southern Lebanon, Israeli airstrikes killed at least nine people. Lebanese officials said one strike hit a home near Ansar, killing seven people, including three children, while another strike in Deir al-Zahrani killed two and wounded nine. Israel said it was striking Hezbollah infrastructure in response to actions against its soldiers.
In Yemen, the military said the Houthi movement fired six ballistic missiles at the Mokha port, killing at least one security guard and wounding eight people. The attack was described by Yemeni officials as targeting a vital civilian facility.
