Strait of Deception: UAE Accuses Iran of Attacks on ADNOC Vessels The latest salvo in the ongoing maritime standoff between the United Arab Emirates and Iran has been fired, but this time it's not just about control over oil flow through the vital Strait of Hormuz.
The UAE's accusation that Iran is responsible for attacks on two vessels linked to ADNOC, the national oil company, raises questions about Tehran's intentions in the region.
The attack was notable for its brazenness: no injuries were reported, but it marked the 15th such assault on ADNOC vessels since the US and Israel launched their military campaign against Iran.
