What happened

Well supportedReported by 6 independent outlets

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy warned ships against using the Strait of Hormuz. Separately, the IRGC Navy stated that the supertanker Algaya exploded after hitting naval mines in a restricted zone south of the Strait of Hormuz, which the IRGC Navy claimed was under its "smart control". The IRGC Navy also claimed it struck a US unmanned surveillance vessel named "Sildrone" in the Strait.
