The military escalation in the Middle East affected numerous cruise passengers on Saturday. According to reports, two ships from the cruise line Tui Cruises were in ports in Qatar and the United Arab Emirates when the first waves of Iranian rocket attacks began. This surprised thousands of passengers on board.
The ships were thus in close proximity to the conflict zone in the Gulf region. The escalation occurred over the weekend, drawing the passengers unexpectedly into the events. There are no detailed reports yet on damage to the ships or injuries among passengers.
German authorities, particularly the Foreign Office, are being contacted for further information. The situation remains unclear, and travelers in the region may be impacted by the developments. The reports come from local news sources that confirm the ships' positions at the time of the attacks.
