UK maritime agency reports incident with 'tanker and military forces' in Gulf of Oman

An incident involving a tanker and unspecified military forces was reported on Saturday near the Strait of Hormuz waterway, according to the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations monitor.

"UKMTO has received a report of an incident involving a tanker and military forces in the Gulf of Oman," the agency said in a statement, as the United States and Iran battle over the Gulf chokepoint, which is crucial for international oil and gas shipping.
