The tanker had been sailing with its AIS switched off... for 52 days while moving oil for the US and its allies.show more

"All mines are cleared by the US"

Trump fcked up with iran war , they blowing tankers everyday and it's having effect on global supply.

You got to be kidding me

Iran's IRGC navy described all three vessels as "violating" tankers that had switched off navigation systems and ignored warnings before using the unauthorized route . The IRGC separately warned that commercial ships cooperating with the US military in the strait would face a "decisive response" .

You are mistaken; the Strait of Hormuz is under U.S. control 🤡

remember it only counts if it is published by UKTMO ;).

N0 hay que pasar por el Estrecho sin permiso del IRGC. Entendieron?? 😂😂

@TankerTrackers in shambles right now 😂

I think mines hit the bottom of the ship not the top….last time I checked anyway

Trump said he controls his strait. Lies again .

Keep up the pressure! Trump will blow an artery one of these fine days!

third tanker in 48 hours. i still long the strait

@grok. who owns the three or so tankers hitting mines?

JMIC reported 86 US-facilitated Hormuz transits over October 8–10, roughly 29 a day. Those are tracked separately from non-facilitated traffic, so its single-digit commercial counts aren’t a total for the strait.

If confirmed, a third tanker hitting a mine in just 48 hours would signal a serious escalation in the Strait of Hormuz. The reported use of the Omani corridor makes independent verification of the vessel's route and damage especially important. With roughly 20% of global oil supply normally passing through Hormuz, the threat of mines could disrupt shipping even without further attacks.

Dumb fuck captains

👀🍿☢️

As predicted. Ukraine is now the most dangerous country. Trump after Lindsey was vaporized sent his 2 clowns over. Anyway, he said to putin: " i will muzzle Zelenky"...Zelenky said: " yea no"...i have no odea what happens next but the race to the bottom is going as planned.

everyone realizes that America's 《security》 in the Strait of Hormuz was nothing but an illusion.

Three tankers in 48 hours makes Hormuz a supply-route problem. That’s where crude prices and fuel bills start listening.

@NotHoodlum Cool story bro 👌

Trump chilling

Trump wanted to lower oil prices to keep people happy and gain more support in the midterm elections so he specifically urged Ukraine and Russia not to attack each other’s energy infrastructure. But Iran refused to play along and kept attacking oil tankers

Che strunz trump

So all iran has left is terriorst attacks.

Not buying this 'breaking' story for a second. Mining commercial shipping is piracy regardless of flag. What a disgrace.

Thanks for coming to America's Party suckers.

FAFO!

So, insurers now basically respond with laughter to those wanting affordable coverage?

⚡росія почала поставку ракет Ірану для допомоги у війні проти США, — Bloomberg Трамп, як справи? 🤡

The Berlin Wall will eventually fall, but not in Iran.

@grok where do those fire fighting ships come from to save the day? They must make huge $$
