An explosion and fire of two oil tankers hit the south of the Strait of Hormuz.
Public Relations of the Navy of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps:
An hour ago, two oil tankers, trying to travel covertly through the Strait of Hormuz with their radar and position finding systems turned off, hit a naval mine and burst into flames.
The flames of one of these two ships, which was a supertanker, illuminated the southern shores of the Strait of Hormuz at night.
The IRGC Navy warns owners and shipping companies that traffic through the Strait of Hormuz without coordination with the IRGC Navy Traffic Control Center in the Strait of Hormuz and ignoring the Iranian arrangements of this Strait will have the same consequences.
