IRGC: 'A few hours ago, two erring oil tankers, deceived by the US military and attempting to pass through a dangerous route in the southern part of the Strait of Hormuz, caught fire and were stopped due to an explosion. Rescue units are currently evacuating the crews of these vessels from the area. The IRGC Navy once again warns shipping companies to take care of the safety of their crews and vessels, not to trust false information from the US military, and to avoid contaminated and dangerous routes. It is clear that as long as the US acts of aggression continue in the region, the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed, and not even a single drop of oil or gas, or a single package of chemical fertilizer, will be exported from the region. Punitive operations against U.S. bases have begun in response to the maritime violations, and reports will be provided to you.'
