This happened earlier this morning, he tells Sveriges Radio.

Dagens Nyheter reports that the attack took place in Bahrain and that a fire on board has been extinguished. According to the newspaper, one shipyard worker was killed and two were injured in the attack.

Stena Bulk has around 60 tankers in service, several of which are in the Persian Gulf after the US and Israel attacked Iran on Saturday. Iran has since attacked targets in the Middle East and closed the shipping lane out of the Persian Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz.
