  • Two Tankers Carrying Saudi Oil Attacked in Strait of Hormuz
Two supertankers carrying Saudi crude were struck by projectiles while transiting outbound through the Strait of Hormuz. The Saudi-flagged Sidr and Liberian-flagged Senegal Prosperity were hit within minutes of each other near Khasab, Oman, after each had loaded approximately 2 million barrels of Saudi crude at the Juaymah terminal. The attacks came after Saudi Aramco resumed oil loadings and sales from inside the strait in August. Saudi Arabia later said that the attack on Sidr killed two Filipino seafarers.
