SINGAPORE, Sept 1 (Reuters) – Two supertankers carrying Saudi oil were struck by unknown projectiles within minutes of each other while transiting outbound through the Strait of Hormuz late on Monday, according to shipping intelligence and tracking firms Marisks and Kpler.
“The near-simultaneous incidents represent a further escalation in the threat environment within the Omani corridor,” Marisks said.
