The giant oil tanker "Al-Ghayah" exploded today, Monday, while attempting to cross the prohibited area south of the Strait of Hormuz due to a collision with naval mines.

A statement from the naval forces of the Revolutionary Guard received by the news video agency indicated that efforts to extinguish the fire that broke out on the tanker registered under number 9325336 had failed, leading to the flames completely consuming the tanker.

The statement clarified that the tanker had received prior warnings about the danger of illegal passage and confirmed that the Strait of Hormuz is closed and fully under intelligence control.
