Liberia-flagged MINOAN DIGNITY hit by unknown projectile

What we can say

UKMTO/Intercargo: crew member killed. Iranian media separately claim IRGC detention of tanker AMARA. No projectile attribution.

UKMTO reported an outbound Strait of Hormuz transit struck by an unknown projectile with engine-room damage and a crew casualty; Intercargo identified the vessel as Liberia-flagged MINOAN DIGNITY and said a seafarer died. Remaining crew were assisted by the Omani Coast Guard per open maritime reporting. Desk does not attribute the projectile. Separately, Iranian media claim detention of tanker AMARA — treated as a distinct Developing strand unless multi-source confirmation locks it to this card.
