A cargo ship, the MSC Sariska V, was struck by two explosions near Iraq’s Umm Qasr port — the first by an unknown projectile, the second suspected to be a drone — leaving the vessel damaged but crew unharmed. The attack, claimed by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard as retaliation for a U.S. strike on the Iranian-flagged Lian Star, has ignited fresh alarm over global trade security and the safety of seafarers. With tensions escalating and threats of further retaliation looming, this incident underscores the fragile calm in a vital maritime chokepoint.
