A video shows the bulk carrier 'Luni' (IMO number 9070711) experiencing a hull fracture near Abbas Port, ultimately breaking in two and sinking in shallow waters at the northern anchorage of the Strait of Hormuz. The 'Luni' is 32 years old, well beyond the normal service life for commercial vessels. There is currently no authoritative report on the sinking incident, but rumors suggest that it collided with another commercial ship a few days prior, causing damage that rapidly spread and led to a catastrophic accident. Additionally, the hull fracture may also be the result of a heavy torpedo attack or a rapid sinking attack, both of which involve detonating large explosive charges beneath the midsection of the hull, forcing it to rise and break apart. Although the U.S. military has been conducting intense strikes in the Abbas Port area, there have been no reports of the 'Luni' suffering any kinetic attacks.
