The Emirati national guard says it has evacuated 24 people from an oil tanker after a collision between two ships just east of the world’s most critical oil chokepoint, the Strait of Hormuz.

Two oil tankers collided and caught fire on Tuesday near the Strait of Hormuz. The incident occurred amid a surge in electronic interference in the region, attributed to the ongoing conflict between Iran and Israel, according to a Reuters report. No injuries to the crew or oil spillage were reported.

While the crash was not deemed security-related, maritime experts warn of growing risks in the area as the days-long Israel-Iran conflict continues to unfold.
