Iranian pro-government media reported that an oil tanker exploded after hitting a mine in the Strait of Hormuz on July 26. The incident occurred when the tanker deviated from the route designated by Tehran, according to Tasnim news agency.

The Iranian authorities had warned ships in the area to follow the designated route or face consequences. This warning comes amid escalating tensions between Iran and the US, with both sides launching strikes on each other's military sites.

On July 24, Vice President JD Vance and Gen. Dan Caine expressed concern over a possible escalation of the war in Iran as President Donald Trump weighed the option during a White House meeting.
