Iran's IRGC reports oil tanker struck by naval mine and caught fire in Strait of Hormuz

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy announced that an oil tanker caught fire after striking a naval mine in the southern Strait of Hormuz. The IRGC accused the vessel of violating maritime regulations by switching off its navigation systems and using an unauthorized route, warning of a 'firm response' for such actions. This is the third reported incident of a tanker hitting a mine in the strait since Friday.
