Tanker with 27 Indian seafarers hit in reported limpet mine attack in Hormuz

Two oil tankers were reportedly targeted in separate attacks in the Strait of Hormuz on October 29 and 30, including MT Louise 1, struck by limpet mines that started an engine room fire. Iran has pushed a 'sea mines' narrative, which Gulf News notes is a familiar Iranian tactic.
