Cargo Vessel Evacuated After Attack Near Hormuz

A Thai-flagged cargo ship was abandoned after coming under attack shortly after passing through the Strait of Hormuz on March 11. Reports said the strike hit the rear of the vessel, badly damaged the engine room, and triggered a fire that spread onboard. With the ship disabled and conditions worsening, the captain ordered the full evacuation of the crew. All 23 crew members were brought to safety, with no deaths or injuries reported. Officials are still trying to determine who carried out the attack and what weapon was used.
