Zjedź do treści: Zjedź do treści zwiększonej: Ataki zapaliły zaledwie trzy jednostki o małym stanu opracowanych w Iranie, kiedy to próbował ponownie otworzyć cieśninę Ormuzu. Artykuły o atakach podały, że Iran wystrzelił cztery pociski manewrujące, z czego trzy zostały zestrzelone, a jeden wpadł do morza, podczas gdy w emiracie Fujairah władze powiedziały, że irański dron spowodował pożar w kluczowym zakładzie naftowym. Brytyjskie siły zbrojne poinformowały o dwóch statkach handlowych płonących u wybrzeży ZEA.
Trzech obywateli indyjskich zostało rannych na strefie przemysłowej ropy naftowej Fujairah i przewieziono do szpitala, jak podało biuro prasowe Fujairah.
Zjedź do treści: Zjedź do treści: Ataki doszły po tym, jak amerykańskie siły zbrojne powiedziały, że dwa amerykańskie statki handlowe z sukcesem przeszły przez cieśninę po uruchomieniu nowej inicjatywy przywrócenia ruchu w poniedziałek.
Zjedź do treści: Iran skutecznie kontrolował cieśninę, od kiedy USA i Izrael rozpoczęły wojnę na przełomie lutego i marca. Przerwanie irańskiej blokady złagodziłoby obawy głobalne oraz odebrał Teheranowi główne źródło nacisku w rozmowach mających na celu zakończenie wojny. Jednak takie wysiłki także ryzykują wznowienie pełnoskalowej walki.

Iran has effectively controlled the strait since the U.S. and Israel launched the war in late February. Breaking Iran’s chokehold would ease global economic concerns and deny Tehran a major source of leverage in talks aimed at ending the war. But such efforts also risk reigniting full-scale fighting.
Iran’s effective closure of the strait, which runs between Iran and Oman, has caused a spike in worldwide fuel prices and rattled the global economy. The U.S.-led Joint Maritime Information Center is now advising ships to cross the strait through the „enhanced security area” in Oman’s waters.
Reports of new attacks raised doubts as to whether shipping companies, and their insurers, will feel comfortable taking the risk given that Iran has fired on ships in the waterway and vowed to keep doing so. Iran has said the new U.S. effort is a violation of the fragile ceasefire that has held for more than three weeks.
Earlier Monday, the U.A.E. also accused Iran of attacking an empty crude oil tanker belonging to the Abu Dhabi state oil firm ADNOC with drones as it attempted to pass through the strait.
Free of mines, U.S. says
Admiral Brad Cooper, commander of U.S. Central Command, told reporters that American forces have successfully opened a passage through the strait that is free of Iranian mines. He said Iran had launched multiple cruise missiles, drones and small boats at civilian ships under the U.S. military’s protection.
U.S. military helicopters sank six of the small boats, Cooper said, adding that „each and every” threat had been defeated.
„The U.S. commanders who are on the scene have all the authority necessary to defend their unit and to defend commercial shipping — as we saw and demonstrated earlier today,” Cooper said.
Trump had warned Sunday that Iranian efforts to halt passage through the strait „will, unfortunately, have to be dealt with forcefully.”
Joe Sestak, a former deputy chief of U.S. naval operations, says ships stuck in the Strait of Hormuz will likely be reluctant to take up U.S. President Donald Trump’s offer to guide them out because of the uncertainty around the U.S. plan and Iran’s ability to continue to restrict traffic through the strait.
He described the effort to reopen the strait in humanitarian terms, designed to aid stranded seafarers on hundreds of ships that have been stuck in the Persian Gulf since the war began. Crews have described to The Associated Press seeing drones and missiles explode over the waters earlier in the war as their vessels run low on drinking water, food and other supplies.
Iran’s state-run IRNA news agency called the effort part of Trump’s „delirium.”
Transit not possible, group says
The Joint Maritime Information Center, led by U.S. maritime forces based in Bahrain, told operators in a note that the U.S. had „established an enhanced security area to support Strait of Hormuz transits.”
It advised vessels to use Omani waters on the west of the strait to avoid mines, urging them to „carefully review risk assessments and routing ahead of transit.”
Hundreds of commercial vessels and as many as 20,000 seafarers have been unable to transit the strait during the conflict, the International Maritime Organization says.
The container shipping group Hapag-Lloyd said on Monday that it considered that transit through the strait was still not possible.
Shipping and oil executives have said they need an agreed and full end to hostilities because military convoys alone are not enough to allow normal traffic to resume safely.

Meanwhile, Pakistan said the U.S. has handed over 22 crew members from an Iranian container vessel that it seized last month.
Pakistan, which has been trying to broker a peace deal, described the move as a „confidence-building measure.”
The U.S. and Israel suspended their bombing campaign against Iran four weeks ago, and U.S. and Iranian officials held one round of talks. But attempts to set up further meetings have so far ​failed.
Iranian state media said on Sunday Washington had conveyed its response â to Iran’s 14-point proposal via Pakistan, and that Tehran was now reviewing it.
A senior Iranian official has confirmed that the proposal envisages ending the war on all fronts — including Israel’s attacks on Lebanon — and resolving the shipping standoff first, while leaving talks on Iran’s nuclear program for later.
Washington wants Tehran to give up its stockpile of more than 400 kilograms of highly enriched uranium, which the U.S. says could power a bomb.
