2026-06-25 · shipping

The Singapore-flagged, Evergreen-operated container ship Ever Lovely was struck on its starboard side by an unknown projectile about 7.5nm southeast of Dahit, Oman (UKMTO Warning 074-26), damaging the bridge with no casualties among the 21 crew; US officials attributed the strike to an IRGC Navy drone, and the IMO suspended its Hormuz evacuation scheme for trapped ships, ending roughly a week of post-MOU calm.
