Drone Strike on Gas Tankers Raises Suez Canal Security Concerns

Drone Strike on Gas Tankers Raises Suez Canal Security Concerns

A drone attack hit two big oil ships near Egypt, which is close to the Suez Canal, a very important waterway for oil.

Nobody said who did it, but it made people worry that the canal could be attacked too.

The US military said none of its planes were hit and that its ships are still blocking the canal.

Iran’s foreign minister asked Bulgaria to stop letting US planes land in a Bulgarian base.

This all happens while the US and Iran have been fighting for five months.
