Three cargo ships struck off Iran's coast, UK says, including one in Strait of Hormuz The incidents mark the latest in a string of reported attacks in or near to the Strait of Hormuz, where shipping traffic has virtually ground to a halt.

One of the ships reported it had been struck 11 nautical miles north of Oman in the Strait of Hormuz, causing a fire onboard and forcing the crew to evacuate, the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations said.

Shipping through the strait has ground to a near standstill since Feb. 28, CNBC reported.

With Chock & Bates' withdrawal from 2026 Worlds, it's safe to assume they'll officially retire soon. They've had a loooong and successful career, and Evan's back needs to heal before Stars on Ice!
