According to informed sources, a liquefied natural gas carrier named the Al Rekayyat was hit by an unidentified projectile while transiting the Strait of Hormuz towards the Gulf of Oman, near the Omani coast.
The vessel is owned by Qatar's Nakilat company, which did not respond to requests for comment.
Maritime tracking data indicates the ship appeared to be sailing with its transponder turned off.
One source revealed that the Al Rekayyat had loaded a cargo of LNG from the Ras Laffan liquefaction facility earlier this month.
