00:16Two oil tankers caught in massive explosions, flames lighting up the waters near the Strait
00:23of Hormuz. And now, Iran's military is issuing a fresh warning to ships attempting to cross
00:29one of the world's most critical oil routes. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy
00:35claims the two tankers exploded and caught fire after striking naval mines while attempting to
00:42use what Tehran calls an unauthorized shipping route south of the Strait. But that's not all.
00:48According to the IRGC, the vessels were attempting to pass through the waterway without coordinating
00:54with Iranian authorities. The military further claims both ships had switched off their radar
01:00and navigation systems, apparently trying to move through the area undetected. One of the vessels was
01:06reportedly a supertanker. Iranian state media described the resulting flames as so intense
01:13that they illuminated the southern shores of the Strait. The IRGC claims naval mines triggered the
01:19explosions, but the details remain unverified. Reuters has reported the Iranian military's account,
01:26but there has been no independent confirmation establishing that the vessels struck mines.
01:32Their names, flags, crew conditions, and exact locations have also not been disclosed. And this
01:39is where the situation becomes even more concerning. The IRGC is warning shipping companies against using
01:46routes without its approval, demanding that vessels coordinate with its traffic control center and follow
01:52Iranian arrangements. In other words, Tehran is reinforcing its claim of control over maritime
01:59movement through the Strait of Hormuz. With tensions between Iran and the United States already running
02:05high, another reported incident involving oil tankers could further complicate commercial shipping
02:11through this vital energy corridor. But for now, one crucial question remains. Were these tankers
02:18actually destroyed by naval mines, as Iran claims? Or is the full story still waiting to emerge?
