Oman Evacuates Injured Crew from Attacked Tanker in Strait of Hormuz

Oman’s air force evacuated 10 injured crew members from the Panamanian-flagged On Peace tanker after it was attacked in the Strait of Hormuz. India, a major contributor of seafarers, expressed concern over the deteriorating security in the region.

Why it matters. The attack highlights ongoing tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, a critical oil transit route, and raises concerns about the safety of shipping in the area.
