The United Arab Emirates said an Iranian missile targeted a vessel linked to state energy company ADNOC while it was transiting the Strait of Hormuz on August 8, with no injuries reported.

The Associated Press reported that the UAE Foreign Ministry condemned what it called a hostile Iranian attack on an ADNOC vessel. ADNOC said the situation was brought under control and that there were no casualties. The company did not publicly provide details about the ship’s cargo or the extent of any damage in the report.

Reuters, in a report carried by MarketScreener, also said the UAE accused Iran of attacking a carrier associated with ADNOC and described the action as piracy. Reuters reported that the initial information came through the UAE state news agency WAM, which said one vessel had been targeted by a missile.

The reports said the incident occurred as wider fighting and negotiations continued around the Strait of Hormuz. The waterway is a major route for energy shipments, and both reports linked the incident to concerns about commercial navigation and the security of global energy supplies.

The uae missile threats search is tied to a reported maritime incident rather than a confirmed new warning for all residents. The available accounts identify the vessel targeting allegation and the absence of reported injuries, while details about the ship and damage remain limited.
