    [rtl]Two British maritime security agencies, "YOUKAMTO" and "EMBRI", reported Thursday that armed men had boarded a ship in the Gulf of Oman, close to Iran, indicating that contact with it had been lost.

    UKMTO, which is run by the Royal Navy, indicated that it had received a report from the security director about “hearing unknown voices on the phone” with the ship’s captain.[/rtl]
    [rtl]
    "Four to five armed people boarded the St. Nicholas crude oil tanker flying the Marshall Islands flag while it was about 50 nautical miles east of the Omani state of Sohar," the maritime security company Ambrey said in response to a request from Agence France-Presse.[/rtl]
    [rtl]
    The company then added in a statement that “the tanker was moving at a speed of 11.4 knots and continued to move at that speed on a fixed path an hour after the reported boarding time,” noting that the tanker changed its direction and increased its speed before losing contact with it and “headed toward Bandar Jask in Iran.[/rtl]
    [rtl]
    Ambrey explained that the suspected gunmen wore “black military uniforms and black masks” and “covered the surveillance cameras on board the ship,” referring to the tanker itself, before changing its name. It had previously been prosecuted for transporting sanctioned Iranian oil, which the United States confiscated and was fined.[/rtl]
    [rtl]
    According to the "Marine Traffic" website, which monitors navigation traffic, the "Saint Nicholas" ship departed from the port of Basra in southern Iraq and was heading to Turkey.
    In recent years, Washington and Tehran have exchanged accusations over a series of incidents in Gulf waters, including mysterious attacks on ships, the downing of a drone, and the confiscation of oil tankers.[/rtl]
    [rtl]
    Last July, the US Navy announced that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard had detained a commercial ship “possibly involved in smuggling activities” in the Gulf region, the day after it accused the Iranian Navy of trying to detain two commercial oil tankers off the coast of Oman.[/rtl]
    [rtl]
    In early August, Washington announced the arrival of more than three thousand American sailors to the Middle East as part of a plan to strengthen the military presence in the region with the aim of deterring Iran from seizing ships and oil tankers.[/rtl]
    [rtl]
    These moves came in the wake of a series of ship detentions in the Strait of Hormuz, the main passage through which about a fifth of global oil production passes daily.[/rtl]
    [rtl]
    In another region, the Red Sea has witnessed during the past weeks a series of attacks or interceptions of ships carried out by the Yemeni Houthi rebels, in solidarity with the Gaza Strip, which has been witnessing a war with Israel since October 7. The Houthis announced that they were targeting ships linked to Israel or Israelis.[/rtl]
