Revolutionary Guard says two oil tankers turned back in Hormuz Strait

Revolutionary Guard: Last night, two oil tankers were trying to leave an unsafe route in the southern Strait of Hormuz, encouraged by American aircraft. After a massive fire broke out on one of them, the two tankers quickly turned back. It added that the Strait of Hormuz is its land and that the naval forces of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard control it strongly, and will not allow any outsider coming from thousands of kilometers away to interfere. It also said that countries that intervene to help aggressors will, if they do not correct their behavior, receive a harsh response. It said the Strait of Hormuz cannot be opened as long as the exaggerations and threats by American officials and their interference in navigation in the region continue.
