Iran’s Revolutionary Guards confirmed on Wednesday that they had struck an oil tanker in the Gulf, saying it belonged to Israel.
“An oil tanker belonging to the illegitimate and child-killing Zionist regime with the trade name ‘Aqua 1’ in the central region of the Persian Gulf was precisely targeted in the valiant missile battle of the IRGC naval forces, and is burning,” the Guards said in a statement carried by state television.
Qatar had earlier said the tanker was hit in its territorial waters.
