Based on the warning from this organization, a report of the incident was received on Sunday night by military authorities, and the cause of the fire has not been confirmed yet. The organization advised ships to transit with caution and to report any suspicious activity.

The site of the incident was announced as the northernmost point of the Musandam Peninsula in Oman and at the mouth of the Strait of Hormuz.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had previously claimed in a statement that late last night two tankers that intended to enter the southern route of the Strait of Hormuz had exploded.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed that late last night two tankers that intended to enter the southern route of the Strait of Hormuz had exploded and were unable to continue moving.

Based on the IRGC public relations statement, the two tankers were “provoked and forced” by the U.S. Army into this route. In this statement, the names of the ships, their nationalities, and the condition of the crew were not mentioned.

In the same statement, the IRGC said that as long as the United States’ attacks in the region continue, this route would not be safe for “even a drop of oil and gas,” and the U.S. Army should be prepared for “punitive operations.”
