The US Central Command has accused Iran of deliberately attacking the Panama-flagged tanker El Gaia twice, rejecting an IRGC claim that the vessel struck a naval mine in the Strait of Hormuz. CENTCOM said an Iranian missile hit the tanker last month before a drone struck it again over the weekend off Oman. Thirteen of the vessel’s fourteen Indian crew members were rescued, while search operations continued for the missing crew member. #CENTCOM #Iran #IRGC #StraitOfHormuz #ElGaia #IranUS #Oman #TankerAttack #IranMissile #IranDrone #IndianCrew #ShippingCrisis #MiddleEast #GulfCrisis #OilTanker Times Of India (TOI) Is The Largest Selling English Daily In The World.
