Unconfirmed reports indicate a drone struck a US-owned LNG floating storage facility at Damietta Port, Egypt, on July 29, 2026. Multiple OSINT sources reported fires breaking out at the facility, which was flying a Marshall Islands flag.
According to maritime security firm Ambrey, the US-owned floating LNG storage facility was hit by at least one drone while moored at the port. Initial reports from multiple sources indicate no casualties were reported and no damage to port infrastructure was observed.
Firefighters responded to the scene as fires broke out on vessels at the terminal. Local reports said several LNG carriers and cargo ships in the vicinity were also affected.
No group has claimed responsibility for the attack. The incident remains unconfirmed by official Egyptian or US authorities.
This marks another security incident affecting critical energy infrastructure in the Eastern Mediterranean region, an area that has seen increasing tensions and attacks on shipping in recent years.
