Summary

A Panama-flagged commercial vessel, MT On Peace, was struck by a projectile in the Strait of Hormuz off Oman on October 6, 2026. Reports indicate the strike injured between 11 and 12 crew members, including 11 Indian nationals among the vessel's crew of 17 to 19. The injured were evacuated with assistance from Omani authorities and received medical treatment in Khasab, Oman. One report describes a fire on board following the strike. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack. The incident was not confirmed by Oman's Defense Ministry. The attack occurred amid a broader pattern of projectile strikes on commercial vessels in the region, which reports indicate has reduced shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz to its lowest levels in over two months.
