Naval Drones Attack Oil Tankers in Gulf

0:00On March 11th, here's the latest in global news. Naval drones have struck oil tankers at least twice in the Gulf since the war between the United States, Israel, and Iran broke out. Maritime experts say these explosive unmanned boats pose a serious new risk in this vital shipping area, which handles one-fifth of the world's oil. One attack hit the Bahamas flag tanker Sanangle Nemebe, while it was anchored near Iraq's core Al-Zubair port. Footage shows a speedboat-like drone slamming into the side, causing a big explosion and thick smoke. All 23 crew members are safe, and the company is investigating. Analysts point to Iran is likely behind it, especially after their revolutionary guard claimed to hit an American tanker nearby with missiles. Tehran has shown off these drones before, and now warns of oil prices hitting $200 a barrel, while threatening to close the strait of. Hormuz. These sea drones pack more explosives and air ones and can disable ships by striking key spots, leaving them easy targets for follow-ups.

Shipping through the strait has nearly stopped, but no one has confirmed who is responsible for the attacks. Iran has not commented, and experts say this could mark their first use of naval drones on commercial ships. This DNA story comes to you, thanks to our sponsor.
