In Jordan

A Liberia-flagged tanker was struck by an unidentified projectile in the Red Sea causing minor damage, but no casualties, British maritime security agencies said on Thursday.

According to Tradewinds, the vessel is Greek-managed.

The incident occurred about 73 nautical miles (135 kilometers) southwest of the Yemeni port of Hodeidah, security firm Ambrey said.

Greece has "strongly condemned" an Iranian ballistic missile attack on Israel Tuesday and called for an immediate de-escalation in the Middle East.

Oil prices are up more than 5% in international commodities markets as the Iranian attack on Israel began with dozens of ballistic missiles.
