Iranian gunboats fire on tanker in Hormuz as Tehran blocks strait again
Iranian gunboats fired at a tanker in the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday, according to UK Maritime Trade Operations, following Tehran’s move to reinstate restrictions on the key shipping route. The tanker's captain reported being approached 37 kilometers (23 miles) northeast of Oman by two gunboats of Iran's Revolutionary Guards Corp (IRGC). Without any radio warning, the gunboats "then fired upon the tanker", the UK Maritime Trade Operations Centre said in an online statement.المصدر: Daily Sabah EN | Source: Daily Sabah EN
