GoKawiilIran reports seven tankers damaged in Strait of Hormuz amid Israel-Iran tensions
Tehran said seven oil tankers were set on fire or damaged overnight in the Strait of Hormuz, attributing the incidents to Iranian strikes or naval mines. Despite the attacks, tankers continue moving oil through the strait under U.S. military protection, and the episode comes just days before Israel's Oct. 27 election and ahead of U.S. midterms.
