BREAKING | IRGC reports two oil tankers ablaze after striking naval mines in Strait of Hormuz Two oil tankers caught fire and were disabled after striking naval mines while attempting to navigate "unauthorized" maritime corridors through the Strait of Hormuz, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced in a statement reported by Tasnim News Agency. According to the IRGC Navy, one vessel was hit in the eastern sector of the strategic waterway while the second was disabled within the main strait. Iranian military authorities stated that both tankers had deliberately switched off their automatic identification systems (AIS) and tracking devices while attempting to transit under the direct protection of US military forces. Reiterating that the critical energy corridor remains strictly closed to unauthorized traffic, the IRGC affirmed that maritime access will not be restored until Washington accepts the seven framework conditions submitted through regional mediators. The IRGC added that attempts by the US military to force commercial shipping through unapproved and mine-contaminated waters would continue to result in immediate failure.
