New Drone Attack Reported on Bunkering Terminal at Port of Duqm
A new drone attack has been reported at the Port of Duqm in Oman.
The bunker terminal at the port came under attack on Tuesday morning, a local source told Ship & Bunker.
"We don't have any more information yet," the source said.
The state-backed Oman News Agency reported several drones targeted fuel tanks at the port and hit one of them, citing a security officer.
No casualties were reported, according to the report.
As well as offering commercial bunkering services, Duqm is also used as a bunkering location for the US Navy and the UK's Royal Navy.
A separate attack was reported at the port on Sunday, in which one drone targeted a residential building at the port and injured a foreign worker, while wreckage from the second drone fell near fuel tanks but did not cause any casualties or material damage.
