A Gambian-flagged bunkering tanker, the AROLIA, was reportedly seen leaking fuel near an anchorage off Fujairah. This incident occurred as the IRGC announced that any vessels committing violations outside the Strait of Hormuz would also be punished.
The IRGC's statement suggests a potential escalation of actions against shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint for global oil trade.
