Iran Launches Missile Attack Near UAE; IRGC Bombards Tug As Tehran Widens Hormuz Campaign

A tugboat was reportedly hit by two unidentified projectiles northeast of Khor Fakkan in the United Arab Emirates, according to the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO). The vessel sustained damage but continued its journey, while one minor casualty was reported. The incident comes amid heightened tensions between Iran and the United States and follows an alleged attack on an Emirati very large crude carrier off Fujairah. The latest reported strike adds to growing concerns over the safety of commercial shipping around the UAE and the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global energy route. The UAE has faced repeated Iranian missile and drone attacks during the US-Israel-Iran conflict and maintains close ties with both Washington and Israel.
