Qatari LNG carrier Al Mayeda hit by unidentified objects in Gulf, Nakilat says

Confirmed · Arabian Gulf (approximate) ·

Qatar's Nakilat says its LNG carrier Al Mayeda was struck by unidentified objects while sailing in the Gulf on the evening of 30 October, with no crew injured. A UKMTO-distributed JMIC advisory places the strike about 40 NM south of Lavan Island, Iran, and reports a fire on board, and the Qatari foreign ministry condemned the attack. Sources differ on the reported hour and on wording about the damage, not on whether the strike happened.

Details by origin

Each detail, with the independent origins that reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. A row counts no more independent origins than the event does above; where it lists more, it says so. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.
