Iran has conducted multiple drone and missile strikes on Omani ports and facilities since March 2026, including Duqm, Salalah, and Sohar, as part of its broader response to U.S. and Israeli actions in the regional conflict. These attacks have targeted sites used for U.S. naval support and refueling, prompting Omani condemnations while Muscat maintains its role mediating Strait of Hormuz navigation talks with Tehran under the Islamabad memorandum framework. Recent incidents occurred in July and early September 2026, even amid joint committee meetings on shipping routes and mine clearance. Trader sentiment reflects uncertainty over whether IRGC elements will launch further strikes on Omani territory before any resolution deadline, given ongoing Hormuz management disputes, U.S. military presence, and Iran's fragmented decision-making post-ceasefire efforts.
