Skip next section US-owned storage tanker hit by drone at Egyptian port — security firm 07/30/2026 July 30, 2026 US-owned storage tanker hit by drone at Egyptian port — security firm Ambrey, a British maritime security firm, released Wednesday an initial assessment stating that a drone had struck a US-owned gas storage tanker in the Egyptian port of Damietta.
An earlier statement from Egypt's Oil Ministry confirmed the fire at the port, but did not mention a drone attack. The ministry said the fire was dealt with immediately and there were no casualties.
It was not immediately clear who was responsible. If confirmed, a strike by Iran or its allies would mark a significant escalation of the conflict.
US President Donald Trump said he had been briefed on the incident.
