A French container ship was attacked transiting Hormuz one day before Trump’s pause — crew injured and vessel damaged
A projectile struck the CMA CGM San Antonio, a large container ship operated by the French shipping giant CMA CGM, as it transited the Strait of Hormuz in late May 2026, injuring several crew members and forcing a medical evacuation from one of the world’s most heavily trafficked maritime chokepoints.
A French-owned container ship made a rare crossing through the Strait of Hormuz, reappearing in the Arabian Sea after disappearing from tracking systems in the Persian Gulf, ship-tracking data showed. The CMA CGM Saigon was last seen Tuesday off Ras Al Khaimah in the United Arab Emirates before resurfacing late Wednesday off Oman’s coast.
CMA CGM Saigon resurfaces after going dark, hinting at a risky Strait of Hormuz transit amid Iran-US tensions and signal jamming.
