A new maritime incident near the strategic Hormuz Strait raises tensions in a region already on edge. Two commercial vessels were hit by Iranian missiles, according to a U.S. official, with a British report adding that a tanker near Oman caught fire. The absence of casualties does little to reduce the risk of escalation between Iran and Western powers. Watch for any formal attribution of responsibility and the response from shipping insurers, which could affect global oil transit.
