Sentekom contradicts Iran on Strait mine incident
The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) denied Iranian claims that a Panama-flagged oil tanker was hit by a mine in the Strait of Hormuz, confirming that the vessel was attacked by Iran last month with a missile. An additional attack using an unmanned aircraft also occurred last week off the coast of Oman. CENTCOM explained that efforts to tow the tanker from its current position are ongoing, with the support of an unidentified regional party. Iran is allegedly spreading disinformation aimed at intimidating commercial ships and influencing navigation in the strait.
