Abu Dhabi Oil Company says its ship was targeted in Emirati waters.
The Abu Dhabi Oil Company announced that one of its ships was the target of a ground attack today in the waters of the United Arab Emirates.
According to this company's statement, several crews were sent to the scene to assist this vessel.
A few hours ago, the Revolutionary Guards Navy said that two "hitting" oil tankers were stopped after an "explosion and fire" while passing through the Strait of Hormuz.
It is unclear if this vessel is one of those vessels mentioned by the Revolutionary Guards.
The IRGC navy's public relations announcement states that one of these ships is a "supertanker" that hit a mine.
According to this announcement, "the second oil tanker, which was about to pass secretly through the illegal route with the support of the warplanes of the invading American army, was stopped in its place by an explosion and a huge fire."
The Revolutionary Guards say both vessels turned off their navigation and identification systems. Despite the news about tankers being targeted in the Strait of Hormuz, the price of Brent oil fell below 90 dollars a barrel today.
