Iran's Revolutionary Guards reported that two tankers struck naval mines in the Strait of Hormuz, with one sinking. This area is crucial for global oil transport, and Iran regularly targets unauthorized vessels. The U.S. enforces a blockade on Iranian ports and escorts tankers in the region. The Guards claimed the tankers were on an unauthorized route when they encountered the mines, causing massive explosions and fires. One tanker, carrying over two million barrels of oil, reportedly sank. However, details about the vessels remain unconfirmed, and the U.S. asserts that the strait has been largely cleared of mines.
