On the 16th local time, the Iranian Navy said that a few hours ago, while continuously monitoring the eastern waters of the Strait of Hormuz, the naval surveillance team discovered and confirmed an illegal tanker that caught fire in the prohibited navigation zone. The offending tanker shut down the navigation tracking system in an attempt to cross the prohibited navigation zone in the Gulf of Oman. The Iranian Navy stressed that disorderly navigation in the prohibited area would endanger safety and bring many dangers to other ships.
