According to the statement, both vessels were supertankers carrying more than 4 million barrels of oil. The IRGC Public Relations Office said that both vessels caught fire and blamed the incident on their reliance on the US military.
Warning Against Using the Southern Route
The entity also warned that vessels that turn off their navigation systems while in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz and cooperate with the US military to pass through the illegal southern route would face similar consequences.
