According to sources from the UK, shipping through the Strait of Hormuz was once again halted on the evening of the 18th. Previously, radio communications warned that Iranian armed forces had resumed "strict management and control" of the strait. Multiple ships in the relevant waters heard the warnings, which have been confirmed. On the same day, UK maritime security company Pioneer Technologies released a report revealing details of three ships attacked near the waters of the Strait of Hormuz, involving one oil tanker, one passenger ship, and one container ship. Among them, two ships were explicitly warned and fired upon by the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, while another container ship was hit by unidentified projectiles 25 nautical miles northeast of Oman, causing damage to some containers.
