A drone strike targeted a US-owned gas storage tanker docked at the Mediterranean port of Damietta in Egypt. The incident was first reported by maritime security firm Ambrey, which indicated that the vessel was hit while in port. Following the strike, port services firm Inchcape reported that two gas tankers caught fire as a result of the event.

While the reports confirm the physical impact and the subsequent fires, there is currently no official statement from the Egyptian government or the United States military regarding the origin of the drone or the specific group responsible for the attack. The situation remains fluid, and the extent of the damage to the vessels and the surrounding port infrastructure is still being assessed. Because the information is currently limited to reports from private maritime security and service firms, the broader geopolitical implications and the motive behind the strike remain subjects of speculation rather than confirmed fact.
