CENTCOM struck five more tankers
The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces destroyed five Iranian crude oil carriers on Sep 8, 2026, after the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) targeted a U.S. Navy warship with ballistic missiles twice over the past two days. The U.S. warship successfully evaded the attempted Iranian attacks and continued to patrol regional waters. No injuries were reported. In response to Iran’s most recent attacks, the CENTCOM attacked the 'Kaviz', 'Charminar', 'Horizon 1' and the 'Riesco' in the Gulf of Oman, as well as the 'Derya' near Kharg Island. The 'Riesco' developed a list to starboard side and sank bow first. The ' Derya' did not lower the lifeboats ahead of the strike. Insforcesthe Kharg Island port authorities dispatched many tugs and pilot vessels to her in order to bring the crew to shore. The American forces usually directed the crews to abandon ship three hours before the vessels were struck and rendered inoperable. Iran had used the tankers as part of a multibillion-dollar shadow network that funds the IRGC and its regional proxies.

Tankers stuck or intercepted due to US blockade and sanctions
The tankers 'Sevin' (IMO: 9357353) and 'Dorena' (IMO: 9569669) were intercepted in the Arabian Sea after attempting to bypass the blockade deadline of April 13. US destroyers were escorting the tankers s to prevent any unauthorized offloading of the sanctioned cargo. The 'Derya' remained stuck at anchorage off Sika. Unlike the others, the ship has not been militarily seized. Because the oil was loaded after the US waiver deadline on March 20, the Indian refineries have officially refused to accept the cargo to avoid secondary sanctions.
