The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Navy said two oil tankers and a tugboat caught fire in separate incidents in the Strait of Hormuz after the vessels attempted to use an unauthorized route. The IRGC electronic warfare unit also said it captured two LUCAS drones, according to the state news agency IRNA. IRNA attributed the figures and the account to the IRGC Navy, and no independent confirmation of the fires or the cause was included in the report. The incidents are part of the wider tensions over shipping in the strait during the ongoing conflict.
