货轮遇袭后联合国暂停霍尔木兹海峡撤离计划UN Pauses Hormuz Evacuation Plan After Cargo Ship Attacked

联合国国际海事组织（IMO）于周四决定，临时暂停其刚刚启动数日的霍尔木兹海峡滞留船只与海员撤离计划。该机构秘书长阿塞尼奥·多明格斯在一份声明中表示，暂停这一撤离行动是为了重新确认安全保证，以确保该计划名单上的船只以及该地区所有其他船只的安全。多明格斯强调，海员的安全始终是重中之重，在获得进一步的明确信息之前，撤离计划将保持暂停状态，以确保协调一致的方法和航行安全。

The UN's International Maritime Organization (IMO) on Thursday temporarily paused its days-old plan to evacuate stranded vessels and seafarers from the Persian Gulf following a projectile attack on a cargo ship. IMO Secretary-General Arsenio Dominguez stated that the suspension is necessary to reconfirm that the essential safety guarantees remain in place for the vessels on the evacuation list and all others operating in the region. Dominguez emphasized that the safety of seafarers remains paramount, and the evacuation plan will remain on hold until further clarity is obtained to ensure a coordinated approach and navigational safety.

这项于周二刚刚启动的紧急撤离计划，旨在协助滞留在波斯湾内的数百艘船只和超过11,000名海员安全驶离。根据该计划，船只可以选择通过伊朗水域的北部路线，或在美方监督下通过阿曼水域的南部路线。尽管多明格斯证实已有数艘船只成功撤离，但周四发生的货轮遇袭事件迫使该机构重新评估风险。国际海事组织同时澄清，此次遇袭的集装箱船在受损前虽已通过霍尔木兹海峡，但其航行并不属于该机构的撤离框架。

The evacuation initiative, which was launched on Tuesday, was designed to assist hundreds of stranded ships and more than 11,000 sailors in sailing out of the Gulf. Under the framework, shipowners could choose either a northern route through Iranian waters or a southern route through Omani waters under US oversight. Although Dominguez confirmed that several boats had already been successfully evacuated, the strike on Thursday forced a reassessment. The IMO noted that the attacked container ship had already transited the Strait of Hormuz before being struck and was not operating under the agency's official evacuation framework.

遇袭的集装箱船为挂有新加坡国旗的“Ever Lovely”号。根据英国海上贸易行动办公室（UKMTO）发布的咨询报告，该船在阿曼达希特（Dahit）港口东南7.5海里处遭遇袭击。袭击是由“一种未知的发射物”造成的，导致该船的右舷驾驶台受损。袭击发生时，该船正航行于阿曼海岸附近的航道中。

The attacked container ship has been identified as the Singapore-flagged Ever Lovely. According to an advisory from the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) centre, the vessel was struck by "an unknown projectile" approximately 7.5 nautical miles southeast of Oman's port of Dahit. The impact caused visible damage to the ship's bridge on its starboard side. The incident occurred as the vessel was navigating the waters off the Omani coast.

尽管遭遇了袭击，但该船未报告任何人员伤亡，也未出现环境影响。海上风险管理公司先锋（Vanguard）透露，在袭击发生后，“Ever Lovely”号并未停下，而是选择继续航行，顺利通过了海峡。该船在受损后依然保持了航向，完成了其既定的航程。

Despite the strike, the advisory confirmed that there were no casualties reported among the crew members, and no environmental impact was detected. According to the maritime risk management firm Vanguard, the Ever Lovely did not halt its operations after the incident. Instead, the container vessel continued its transit through the Strait of Hormuz, maintaining its course despite the damage sustained in the attack.

针对此次袭击事件，美国官员明确指认伊朗是幕后黑手。一名美国官员透露，挂有新加坡国旗的“Ever Lovely”号商船遭到了无人机的袭击，而该无人机是由伊朗准军事组织伊斯兰革命卫队（IRGC）操纵发射的。美国总统特朗普此前已明确表示，伊朗不能破坏霍尔木兹海峡的自由航行，美方官员目前正在对该起袭击报告进行深入调查。

US officials have explicitly pointed to Iran as the perpetrator behind the strike. A US official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, confirmed that the merchant vessel Ever Lovely was attacked by a drone operated by Iran's paramilitary Revolutionary Guard. While US authorities are currently looking into the reports, officials reiterated that President Trump has been clear that Iran will not be permitted to subvert the free flow of traffic through the strategic strait.

在此次袭击发生前数小时，伊朗负责管理该海峡的机构波斯湾海峡管理局（PGSA）曾发出警告，要求船只在未经德黑兰方面允许的情况下停止使用该海峡航道。该机构在社交媒体平台X上发表声明称，任何因使用未经授权航线而导致的后果，均应由船东、运营商和船长自行承担。这一警告表明，伊方对于不符合其规定路线的船只将不提供安全保障。

The drone strike occurred only hours after Iran issued a stern warning to vessels navigating the waterway. The Persian Gulf Strait Authority (PGSA), the body set up by Iran to manage the strait, posted a statement on X declaring that vessels passing outside designated routes would not be guaranteed safe passage. The authority warned that any consequences arising from the use of unauthorized routes would remain the sole responsibility of the vessel's owner, operator, and master.

此次袭击对美国与伊朗达成的60天临时和平协议构成了直接考验。该协议旨在暂停双方敌对行动，为永久和平谈判创造空间，并允许该地区的部分航运得以恢复。尽管特朗普政府一直致力于重新开放这一关键的航运走廊，且海峡内的航运流量已有所部分回升，但目前的整体交通量仍远低于战前水平。袭击事件发生后，部分船东已经开始重新评估其撤离计划，以应对潜在的安全风险。

The drone strike poses a direct challenge to the 60-day interim peace deal negotiated between the United States and Iran, which was designed to pause hostilities to allow negotiations for a permanent peace agreement. While the Trump administration has focused efforts on reopening this critical shipping corridor, and traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has partially recovered, overall transit volumes remain well below pre-war levels. In the wake of the attack, some shipowners have already begun reviewing their exit plans due to heightened security concerns.

不过，霍尔木兹海峡的商业航运并未因此完全中断。根据周五的最新航运动态，尽管发生了这起令人震惊的集装箱船遇袭事件，该重要通道的双向航运依然在继续流动。目前，美方官员正在对袭击报告进行深入调查，而联合国国际海事组织则在等待安全保障得到重新确认，以便决定何时恢复受困海员与船只的撤离工作。

Despite the shock container ship attack, commercial maritime traffic has not ground to a halt. Shipping traffic continued to flow in both directions through the vital thoroughfare on Friday. While US officials continue to investigate the incident and the United Nations agency seeks to reconfirm necessary safety guarantees before resuming its evacuation framework, vessels continue to navigate the strategic waterway.
