Maritime Security Spillover: Russia-linked drone attacks in the Black Sea hit foreign-flagged vessels including one flying the Comoros flag, raising fresh shipping safety concerns. Sanctions & Shipping: The U.S. imposed fresh sanctions on Iran’s military oil network, including a Comoros-flagged tanker listed among targeted vessels, as Hormuz shipping restrictions remain politically sensitive.
