Since the temporary halt, no vessel attacks have been reported in the Strait of Hormuz. “The CMA CGM Group confirms that one of its vessels, the CMA CGM SAN ANTONIO , was the target of an attack yesterday while transiting the Strait of Hormuz, resulting in injuries among crew members and damage to the vessel,” the company said in a statement. The injured seafarers have since been evacuated and are receiving medical treatment, according to the company. CMA CGM said it is closely monitoring the situation and remains fully mobilised alongside the crew.
