Iran intimidates the USA: 'Violations in Hormuz will bring more financial losses'

Tension continues in the Strait of Hormuz. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps reported that a fire broke out on two oil tankers and a tugboat passing through the prohibited route in the Strait of Hormuz. The Revolutionary Guards announced that an oil tanker trying to pass through the illegal corridor in the south of the Strait of Hormuz was damaged when it hit a sea mine, then a fire broke out on the ship and the tanker stopped.

The Revolutionary Guards stated that a fire broke out on another oil tanker departing from the eastern part of the Bosphorus, and that the fire spread to a tugboat that approached the tanker for intervention. The Revolutionary Guard did not provide information about the cause of the fire.

Stating that the USA forced the ships to act against instructions and pass through a mine-laid corridor, the Revolutionary Guard stated that the US government imposed high costs on taxpayers and its allies in the region. The Revolutionary Guard has stated that attempts to violate rules in the Strait of Hormuz will only bring further financial losses and political defeat to the United States.
