[Iran said two oil tankers exploded and stopped sailing in the Strait of Hormuz] November 12th, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy Public Relations Department issued a statement on the 12th saying that two illegal oil tankers exploded and stopped sailing in the Strait of Hormuz on the evening of the 11th. The statement said that the Revolutionary Guards Navy had repeatedly warned that the southern channel of the Strait of Hormuz was an "unauthorized and unsafe channel." However, the two oil tankers, carrying a total of more than 4 million barrels of crude oil, still tried to pass through, and violent explosions occurred while sailing and stopped sailing. The statement also said that any ship that shuts down its navigation system in the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz, cooperates with the US military and attempts to pass through the illegal channel in the southern part of the strait "will eventually end up like this."
