An Iranian commercial vessel was reportedly struck early Sunday off Qeshm Island near the Strait of Hormuz, leaving one person dead and three others injured, state-run media reported.
Separately, the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) monitor said that a vessel was hit by a projectile while passing through the Strait of Hormuz. It did not provide further details.
There was no immediate statement from the US military. The US has previously struck Iranian-flagged vessels as it continues its blockade of Iranian ports. (with inputs from Associated Press)
