LONDON, Oct 7 - Attacks on tankers sailing through the Strait of Hormuz hit their highest last week of any week since the Iran war began, according to maritime security sources tracking incidents, amid a bigger export push by Gulf producers.
美国海军领导的联合海事信息中心(JMIC)在周日的一份声明中表示,伊朗革命卫队持续在该海峡进行袭击、未遂袭击以及骚扰活动,包括无人机飞行、监视和使用甚高频无线电进行呼叫。
Attacks, attempted attacks and harassment activity including drone overflights, surveillance and hailing using VHF radio by Iran's Revolutionary Guards have persisted in the strait, the US Navy-led Joint Maritime Information Center (JMIC) said in a note on Sunday.
JMIC称:‘这些行动继续表明伊朗意图在关键航线上展示其存在,并对过往船只保持压力。’
"These actions continue to demonstrate Iran’s intent to assert presence along key transit lanes and maintain pressure on transiting vessels," the JMIC said.
根据三个海上安全来源基于该地区收到的信息分析的数据,在9月28日至10月5日期间,霍尔木兹海峡至少发生了12起针对石油、液化天然气和液化石油气运输船的袭击事件。
In the week of September 28-October 5, there had been at least 12 attacks on oil, liquefied natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas tankers around the Strait of Hormuz, according to data from three maritime security sources who analysed incidents based on information received from the area.
这些来源表示,这是自2月28日美国与伊朗开战以来单周内袭击次数最多的一周。
That was the highest number of attacks in a single week since the US war with Iran began on February 28, the sources said.
联合国航运机构国际海事组织(IMO)整理的独立数据显示,同一周发生了9起相关事件。
Separate data collated by the UN's shipping agency, the International Maritime Organization (IMO), showed nine incidents involving vessels in the same week.
海事消息人士指出,联合国机构通常需要更长时间来核实和正式记录这些事件。
The UN body tends to take longer to verify and officially record incidents, maritime sources say.
根据IMO的数据,此前最接近这一袭击数量的周是7月13日,当时发生了8起事件。
The closest week in terms of comparable incidents was the week of July 13 when there were eight incidents, separate IMO data showed.
周一的航运数据显示,海湾石油出口国的出口量在9月的大部分时间里都超过了战前的水平,但油轮袭击和物流限制给持续增加的出口前景带来了不确定性。
Gulf oil exporters topped pre-war levels for about half of September, shipping data showed on Monday, though attacks on tankers and logistical constraints cloud the outlook for sustained higher flows.
印度外交部周二表示,一艘悬挂巴拿马国旗的‘On Peace’号油轮在通过霍尔木兹海峡时被不明物体击中,导致12名船员受伤。
India's foreign ministry said on Tuesday that 12 crew members were injured after an unknown projectile struck Panama-flagged oil tanker On Peace while it was passing through the Strait of Hormuz.
