Iran Announces Destruction of Navigation Support Systems South of Strait of Hormuz
The Iranian Revolutionary Guard reported the destruction of navigation systems near the Strait of Hormuz amid ongoing regional military tensions.
An official from the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Navy announced the destruction of navigation support systems in the southern part of the Strait of Hormuz.
The official stated that no unauthorized vessels were permitted to pass through the maritime corridor overnight, emphasizing Tehran's enforcement of restrictions on ships that deviate from designated routes along its coast.
Meanwhile, the United States continues to escort oil tankers transiting the strait, as regional tensions persist following the start of the war.
Last week, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that an air defense facility on Qeshm Island had been targeted, while intermittent limited strikes between the two parties continue.
These ongoing tensions have caused fluctuations in global fuel prices since last April.
