Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claims two oil tankers caught fire after hitting mines in the Strait of Hormuz, Al Jazeera reported, citing Iran's Fars news agency. The IRGC also warned that oil companies would pay a greater price if what it called "evil acts" by the United States continued. The organization further claimed that a U.S. MQ-9 drone was shot down over the strait yesterday. These statements are currently unilateral claims by the IRGC.
