The burning of an oil tanker further damages the east of the Strait of Hormuz.
Hours before, another offensive oil tanker caught fire in the restricted area to the east of the Strait of Hormuz due to hitting a naval mine.
Public relations of the Navy, while emphasizing that the east of the Strait of Hormuz is completely under the control and observation of the Navy, stated: fire and explosion are the fate of the offending ships that turn off their surveillance systems and travel in prohibited areas.
