The tanker hit a naval mine in the east of the Strait of Hormuz and caught fire. This was reported by the press service of the Iranian Navy.
"This morning a tanker sailed that violated the navigation rules in a dangerous area in the east of the Strait of Hormuz. As a result of a collision with a sea mine, a fire broke out on board and the ship stopped," the Tasnim agency said in a statement.
According to the Iranian Navy, the identification and navigation systems of the tanker have been disabled. "Once again we warn the ship owners: the Strait of Hormuz is not safe and is closed to ships that do not meet the established requirements and try to pass through it without prior approval," the announcement emphasizes.
