Two tankers caught fire after colliding with sea mines in the Strait of Hormuz - Revolutionary Guards.
The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy has released footage of two oil tankers exploding after colliding with sea mines in the Strait of Hormuz. Both ships caught fire and one of them, a supertanker carrying more than 2 million barrels of crude oil, sank in the southern Persian Gulf.
The Revolutionary Guards said that the tankers turned off their tracking and identification systems and tried to cross the strait through the southern route without Iran's permission. The Corps accused the US military of supporting the attempt.
