Two videos of the sinking of a cargo ship on November 6 have been released. The specifications of this ship indicate that it is not an oil tanker but a cargo ship belonging to the state of Tanzania. The description of the videos states that this ship sank in the Persian Gulf, but the exact location of the video cannot be determined for BBC Persian.
The data check of this ship named Kayan shows that it is the last cohort near the Strait of Hormuz.
At the same time, on Friday, November 6, the Public Relations of the Navy of the Revolutionary Guards announced that two oil tankers about to cross the Strait of Hormuz caught fire after hitting a mine.
The Revolutionary Guards said that the two tankers turned off "all navigation and identification systems" and plan to pass through the Strait of Hormuz on an "unauthorized" route.
The Revolutionary Guards' announcement did not mention any additional details about these tankers.
Iran says that the ships should pass through the Strait of Hormuz on a route determined by this country.
