Iran's Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) said that they had carried out attacks against three oil tankers and three US-linked vessels in the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday evening, following US strikes on Iranian tankers earlier in the day, as the cycle of violence in the key waterway keeps intensifying.
The IRGC said in a statement to the Iranian media that their naval forces "targeted three oil tankers on the unauthorised route of the Strait of Hormuz and three vessels affiliated with the child-killing America in other areas". They also warned other vessels against attempting to use routes that Tehran had not authorised.
