Iran says it targeted and stopped two oil tankers attempting to transit the Strait of Hormuz, triggering fresh concerns over global shipping security and Gulf tensions. According to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), the vessels ignored warnings and attempted to use what Tehran described as an unauthorized route under U.S. military escort.
The reported incident comes as tensions continue to rise between Iran and the United States over control, security, and freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz — one of the world's most important energy routes.
Iranian state-linked media released footage it said showed a tanker on fire, while officials claimed additional vessels changed course following the confrontation. However, the identities of the tankers and the extent of any damage have not been independently verified.
