A cargo ship was hit by an unidentified projectile in the Strait of Hormuz, causing damage to the bridge, and UKMTO has advised vessels to navigate with caution. As a result, Brent crude oil prices rose above the intraday high of $75 per barrel. A White House official stated that the U.S. is investigating the party responsible for the attack, but it is too early to determine who carried it out. The attack did not cause any casualties or environmental damage, and the vessel was able to continue its voyage.
