Iran’s state media says container ship ran aground after sailing non-designated Hormuz route

Iran’s state media says a foreign container ship ran aground in the Strait of Hormuz after entering shallow waters outside the shipping route designated by Iranian authorities.

State media reiterates the Revolutionary Guards’ warning that vessels should transit only through the corridor south of Iran’s Larak island, which Tehran says is the sole approved entry and exit route for ships passing through the strait.
