United States Central Command has officially dismissed reports suggesting that an oil tanker suffered an explosion due to a mine collision within the Strait of Hormuz. Instead, military officials clarified the vessel's recent history of maritime incidents. According to CENTCOM, the ship was targeted by an Iranian missile strike last month. Furthermore, the command confirmed that the same vessel was subjected to a separate attack involving an Iranian drone in more recent days. These statements serve to correct the narrative surrounding the vessel's status in the region.
