The Revolutionary Guards say that three oil tankers caught fire today in the Strait of Hormuz.
The Iranian media quoted the Revolutionary Guards as saying that the third oil tanker exploded today while crossing an "unauthorized route" in the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran insists that ships must pass through the Strait of Hormuz, and calls vessels that pass through other routes "violators."
News of the Revolutionary Guards, which is affiliated with the Revolutionary Guards, says that the tanker "was hit by a naval mine and exploded."
We previously reported, citing the Revolutionary Guards Navy, that two "hitting" oil tankers were stopped after an "explosion and fire" while passing through the Strait of Hormuz. The Revolutionary Guards Navy said one of the ships was a "supertanker" that hit a mine.
