Drones have struck oil storage facilities at the Port of Salalah in Oman, causing fires and damage to fuel tanks.
Thick smoke has spread across the area, but the full extent of damage is still unclear. No casualties have been reported so far.
Sources attribute the strikes to Iran, in retaliation for recent US-Israeli bombing campaigns. This follows similar attacks, including a drone hit on a fuel tank at Oman's Duqm port last week and earlier incidents since March 1.
Oman, which has been mediating indirect talks between Iran and the US, has seen multiple Iranian drone and missile strikes on its energy infrastructure. Earlier this month, attacks targeted oil tankers off Oman's coast, resulting in injuries and one fatality.
Omani security forces reportedly shot down some drones, while others impacted the targets. Maritime security firms like Ambrey have confirmed the strikes.
This is a developing story with potential implications for global oil supply and regional stability.
