Cargo ship hit by unknown projectile off Qatar coast during Iran-U.S. ceasefire
A bulk carrier caught fire Sunday after being struck by an unknown projectile approximately 23 nautical miles northeast of Doha, Qatar, according to the British military's Maritime Trade Operations Centre. The attack caused a small fire that was extinguished with no reported casualties. The incident occurs during an ongoing but fragile ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran, which has been tested by Iranian restrictions on Strait of Hormuz traffic and U.S. port blockades.
