What happened

Military authorities reported that a tanker was struck by a missile 13 nautical miles southeast of Limah while transiting outbound on the southern route. UKMTO reported that authorities were investigating. The warning did not state the incident time, vessel identity, damage extent, casualty status, environmental impact, missile source, or responsibility. Archived UKMTO Warnings 086-26 and 087-26 contain the same incident details, so they are represented as one map event rather than assumed to be separate attacks.

When cited sources give different casualty, damage or spill figures for this event, they’re reported side by side above rather than merged into one number. See how confidence levels work.
