The Navy of Iran announced that the incident occurred before noon on Thursday, October 29.

Iran’s Armed Forces have repeatedly warned that the Strait of Hormuz is closed to vessels that attempt to pass through prohibited and unsafe zones without coordination and relying on false claims by the US president.

Iran has stressed that such unauthorized navigation through high-risk areas seriously endangers the safety of vessels and their crews, warning that these risks will persist as long as ships disregard the designated restrictions.
