HORMUZ ‘DEATH TRAP’: Iran ‘BOMBS’ 12 Vessels, Turns Strait Into World’s ‘Most Dangerous’ Zone

Attacks on tankers around the Strait of Hormuz have reached their highest weekly level since the Iran war began, according to maritime security sources.

At least 12 attacks were recorded against oil, LNG and LPG tankers between September 28 and October 5. The U.S. Navy-led Joint Maritime Information Center says attacks, attempted attacks and harassment have continued around the strategic waterway, including drone overflights, surveillance and radio hailing by Iran’s Revolutionary Guards.

The surge comes as Gulf producers increase exports through Hormuz, one of the world’s most important energy chokepoints.
