The second tanker collided with a naval mine in the Strait of Hormuz

Public Relations of the Revolutionary Guards Navy:

A criminal tanker suffered an explosion and fire in the engine room after hitting a naval mine in the southern area of the Strait of Hormuz this evening.

This ship with a cargo of crude oil, which was about to leave the Strait of Hormuz, turned off all its navigation systems and violated the laws of the Strait of Hormuz, and had this accident due to crossing an unauthorized lane.

This is the third offending oil tanker hit by sea mines in the unauthorized Strait of Hormuz and caught fire since yesterday.

The Revolutionary Guards Navy announces: All ships in the Strait of Hormuz that turn off their navigation and identification systems will be identified as hostile and will be dealt with forcefully and decisively.
