Drone Strikes Tanker in Hormuz Strait, Minor Damage Reported

🚢 HORMUZ — A third vessel hit in days; "minor damage" is doing heavy lifting here. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: After ADNOC tankers were struck August 13, this outbound hit widens the targeting pattern — now both inbound and outbound transits are in play. With daily transits already at 8-15, each new strike compresses insurance coverage and crew willingness further. The operational question: whether Iran is signaling escalation control or losing it.
