Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy: 'A rogue supertanker, carrying over 2 million barrels of crude oil and attempting to illegally pass through the Strait of Hormuz, was involved in an incident resulting in a massive explosion and fire after hitting a mine. This tanker, having disabled all its navigation and radar systems, attempted to deceive and exploit the support of the U.S. military to transit the Strait of Hormuz, facilitating smuggling and terrorism. The Navy of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announces: The Strait of Hormuz is closed, and the fate of ships that violate the regulations of the Strait of Hormuz is to be consumed by the flames of American terrorist forces' distrust.'
