Maritime Disruption Watch: UKMTO reported several merchant vessels faced “disabling fire” in the northern Arabian Gulf and Gulf of Oman, while Iran condemned the US action as a “war crime” and vowed consequences. Oil Market Pressure: The tanker attacks and wider escalation are feeding supply-risk fears, pushing crude prices toward the $100 mark and raising costs for regional trade routes. Oman Business Angle: Oman’s Al Mazunah Free Zone reported RO141m ($366m) in cumulative investment after localising four projects in H1, and Oman’s Al Mazunah Economic Exhibition and Forum is set for Oct 20-22 to deepen Oman–Yemen trade links.
