Security data shows that since last Sunday, at least 10 ships have been attacked in or near the Strait of Hormuz; This statistic is the highest number of attacks in this region since the start of the war against Iran on February 28, 2026.
According to the selection report, according to the data of the Vanguard security company, the International Maritime Organization and the British Maritime Trade Operations Organization, four ships were attacked on Tuesday and six ships on Sunday. The number of attacks on Sunday was the highest number of attacks recorded in one day since the beginning of the war.
Maritime sources have reported that two sailors are missing, and there have been reports of a container ship sinking following the recent attacks.
Since last March, in response to the US and Israeli attacks on its territory, Iran has started targeting commercial ships passing through this vital passage. Tehran has also continued to attack ships that pass through routes that are not approved by the country.
These attacks have disrupted sea traffic through the Strait of Hormuz; A passage that is usually one of the busiest sea routes for the export of oil and other goods from the Persian Gulf countries.
Since the beginning of this October, 23 attacks have been recorded; A figure that is almost double the monthly average of incidents recorded since the beginning of the war.
America announced on Saturday that it has targeted a cargo ship in the framework of the blockade of Iranian ports. However, the International Maritime Organization has not included this incident among its registered incidents.
According to the statistics of this organization, since the beginning of the war, around 24 sailors have lost their lives in incidents that occurred in the area near the Strait of Hormuz.
The International Monetary Fund announced that the prolongation of the war in the Middle East and its consequences for energy production, shipping routes and critical infrastructure are the greatest risks for the economies of the Middle East and Central Asia.
Jihad Azour, director of the Middle East and Central Asia Department of the International Monetary Fund, told reporters that this war will cause an unbalanced economic shock to the entire region, and the countries that are directly affected by it are facing severe pressure.
According to him, the excess supply available before the war, alternative routes, adjustment of demand and extensive withdrawal of reserves have helped to contain the impact of the shock caused by the American and Israeli attacks on Iran and the subsequent closure of the Strait of Hormuz by Tehran.
"These reserves have given us some time, but they are limited," Azour said. Reserves have decreased and excess production capacity has also decreased; Therefore, a resumption of disruptions could lead to a much wider price adjustment."
He added that the International Monetary Fund predicts that the economy of the Middle East and North Africa region, including Pakistan, will face a severe contraction of 1.3 percent after growing by 3.3 percent in 2025. However, the region is expected to achieve strong but uneven growth in 2027, with economic growth reaching 6.6 percent.
At the same time, Azour emphasized that there are significant differences between the countries of the region.
