Four tankers reported destroyed by naval mines in Strait of Hormuz

Original: 🔴 BREAKING Four Tankers Destroyed by Naval Mines in Strait of Hormuz Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) rep

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps reports that four tankers were destroyed by naval mines in the Strait of Hormuz, saying the vessels struck the mines while attempting to cross the strategic waterway. The claim has not been independently verified, and no other authorities or shipping companies have confirmed the incident so far.

Why now: Any reported attack on tanker traffic in the Strait of Hormuz threatens global oil shipments, so the claim is drawing immediate attention
