Evidence

Multiple independent outlets corroborate this claim as part of ongoing coverage of the 2026 Strait of Hormuz crisis/Iran war. The National reported ADNOC announced early Friday that two of its vessels came under attack while crossing the Strait of Hormuz on Thursday night, with no injuries reported, and that the UAE Foreign Ministry condemned the attack as violating UN Security Council Resolution 2817, calling it 'piracy' by the IRGC. This was echoed by Al Jazeera ('UAE accuses Iran of attacks on two ADNOC vessels in Strait of Hormuz'), Asharq Al-Awsat ('UAE Condemns "Hostile Iranian Attack" on 2 ADNOC Vessels in Hormuz Strait'), Gulf News, anews.com.tr, and referenced in broader live coverage by CNN and NBC News of the 2026 Iran war. Wikipedia also has entries for the '2026 Iran war' and '2026 Strait of Hormuz crisis' reflecting this event as part of a documented ongoing conflict. Bahrain was also reported to have condemned the attack. No AFP Fact Check, Reuters Fact Check, Bellingcat, or EUvsDisinfo assessment of this specific incident was found in searches, likely because it is being treated as breaking hard news by wire/outlet reporting rather than a disputed viral claim requiring debunking.
