An oil tanker exploded in the Strait of Hormuz after reportedly striking a naval mine, with Iranian state-linked media claiming the vessel had deviated from a shipping route designated by Tehran. Iranian authorities said they had repeatedly warned ships against leaving approved navigation corridors, while details about the vessel, its cargo and possible casualties were not immediately available. The incident comes amid heightened tensions in one of the world’s most important energy corridors, where shipping has already been disrupted by the escalating confrontation between Iran and the United States. The latest explosion has intensified concerns over global oil supplies, maritime security and the risk of further instability across the Gulf.
