IRGC Targets Oil Tankers Transiting Through Strait of Hormuz
The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has claimed responsibility for targeting two oil tankers that allegedly transited through the Strait of Hormuz without coordinating with Iranian authorities.
According to IRGC, the tankers ignored warnings and were acting on guidance from the US Central Command (CENTCOM).
The IRGC stated that it had previously warned shipping and insurance companies against following CENTCOM's recommendations, emphasizing that any 'unlawful interference' would not go unanswered.
