⚡️🇮🇷🚢💥 The oil tanker MKD VYOM was struck by a drone reportedly from Iran in the Gulf of Oman, about 52 nautical miles from the coast of the province of Muscat.

🔻 The impact caused an explosion and a fire in the engine room, resulting in the death of an Indian crew member. The 21 people on board, of various nationalities, were evacuated by a commercial ship that intervened in the area.

🔻 After the attack, maritime tracking data indicate a collapse of maritime traffic up to 70% and at least 150 oil tankers halted in the Gulf, with effects on about 20-30% of the world's oil trade transported by sea.
