A residential building housing employees of a private company in the Tibat area of the Wilayat of Bukha in Oman has been struck, an Omani security source said. Bukha is a town in the Musandam Governorate, the Omani exclave that juts into the Strait of Hormuz between the United Arab Emirates and Iran, directly across the strait from Iran's southern coast.

Two expatriates were moderately wounded in the strike, four vehicles were damaged, and the glass of one neighboring house was shattered. Omani authorities said they are investigating and are committed to taking all measures necessary to ensure the safety of citizens and residents. The incident marks the first reported impact on Omani territory amid the wave of Iranian missile and drone attacks over the past several hours.
