Announced earlier today - Two tankers collided and caught fire in the Strait of Hormuz. No details on how severe the damage. Frontline (FRO) owns one of the vessels, Front Eagle.

Statement from FRO on the incident– > **[FRO - Front Eagle Incident - Frontline](https://www.frontlineplc.cy/fro-front-eagle-incident/)** > > Frontline is currently responding to an incident involving their owned tanker, Front Eagle, managed by Anglo Eastern, which was involved in a collision with the vessel Adalynn off Fujairah. The incident occurred approximately 15 NM off Fujairah... So far, it seems no fatalities. That’s a positive. I’m also inferring that putting out a fire on a loaded tanker as a positive. Is the vessel still sail-worthy?
