A vessel owned by Okeanis Eco Tankers has been struck by a drone, the Greek tanker operator confirmed in a regulatory filing to the Oslo Stock Exchange.
The company stated that no members of the crew were injured in the incident.
The attack underscores the escalating risks facing commercial shipping in conflict-adjacent waters.
Okeanis, which is listed on Oslo Børs, did not specify the location of the strike or the extent of the physical damage to the hull in its initial disclosure.
This incident follows a recent drone attack on a US-owned floating LNG storage vessel, the Energos Winter, at Egypt’s Damietta port, which triggered a fire that spread to a second ship.
The pattern of attacks on energy infrastructure and maritime assets suggests a broadening of risk for traders and insurers monitoring global trade routes.
