There is some movement on all anchorages, it is dusk in the region currently - 1749 local time.

Ships are once again being herded into tight groups by Iranian tugs, ekanoplan and "unspecified" craft, each of the groups also appears to be outside territorial waters. One such group is about 15 to 20 miles offshore from Dibba. It has a mixture of ships and one stands out...CMA CGM Aquila. She left Dubai at around the same time as CMA CGM San Antonio. I still have not found CMA CGM San Antonio. The CMA CGM have confirmed that she was hit yesterday and they have confirmed that several of her crew were injured and are now receiving medical care off the ship. They are not confirming the extent of the damage done, whether she is disabled or where she is, we do know that she was fully laden with containers.

Two images....one close up of the group of ships. The light blue arrows / spots are Iranian ekranoplan or tugs. The second image is the same group but giving the proximity with Dibba.
