Cargo vessel struck by projectile in Strait of Hormuz, UN pauses evacuations.

A Singapore-flagged cargo ship, Ever Lovely, was hit by an unknown projectile while transiting the Strait of Hormuz near Oman on June 25, 2026, sustaining damage to its bridge with no casualties reported. The UN's International Maritime Organization paused its evacuation plan for stranded seafarers in the Gulf following the incident and after Iran declared unauthorized transits unacceptable. Iran's Revolutionary Guards had threatened action against vessels using routes not designated by Tehran.
