What to know

  • Qatari LNG carrier Al Mayeda was struck by unidentified objects on Friday evening while transiting the Gulf; no injuries or environmental damage reported.
  • The attack is the latest in a pattern of strikes on commercial shipping since the US-Israel war on Iran began in February, with Iran targeting vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.

  • Qatar has been acting as a mediator trying to revive US-Iran negotiations even as its own vessel came under attack.
