The Singapore-flagged GFS Pride sank Oct. 14 after being struck by a projectile, with Iran falsely claiming it hit a mine. The Antigua and Barbuda-flagged Cape Dao also sank the same day. At least 10 ships have been attacked since Oct. 12 — the highest rate since the war began. Iranian officials reportedly told Reuters that the attacks aim to keep oil prices high ahead of U.S. midterm elections.
