Iran's state broadcaster IRIB reported on Saturday that the Iranian Navy stated a tanker caught fire and lost power in the Gulf of Oman. The statement said other countries "should coordinate with (Iran's) armed forces to ensure safe passage," emphasizing Iran's full control and intelligence oversight over the area east of the Strait of Hormuz, the Arabian Sea, and the Gulf of Oman. This follows earlier reports from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy of two supertankers hitting mines on Saturday, and the UK Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) reporting two tankers were attacked on Friday while attempting to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
