Iranian state TV airs footage showing crewmen from damaged tanker in Iran

Iranian state TV is airing footage of crewmembers on one of the tankers damaged in a suspected attack in the Sea of Oman in a room watching English language news on television.

The video shows apparent crewmembers, including one woman, sitting on couches and watching TV in the Iranian port of Jask.

Two oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman, near the strategic Strait of Hormuz, were damaged in suspected attacks earlier today, the US Navy says, with one adrift and on fire amid heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran.
