> Iran’s IRGC Navy said two supertankers caught fire after hitting naval mines on an “unauthorized” route south of the Strait of Hormuz. Foreign ministers from eight regional and European countries called for the strait to reopen, while Donald Trump raised the possibility of renewed US military action against Iran; whether he will authorize strikes remains uncertain.
