    Question

    Iran's Revolutionary Guard says two oil tankers caught fire after striking mines in the Strait of Hormuz

    Direct answer

    The disputed mine-strike claim increases immediate uncertainty over vessel routing and war-risk insurance, even as the conflicting mine-clearance assertion limits confidence in a sustained physical blockage.
