#BREAKING: #IRGC Navy is behind the attack "GOLDEN BRILLIANT" oil tanker near the port of #Fujairah. Golden Brilliant is heavily damaged by a mine planted by the #IRGCNavy near port of #Fujairah. In addition to that, an asphalt carrier ship named Kamdhenu is also damaged.

#BREAKING: A C-295 MPA of Royal #Oman Air Force is now flying over the burning ship to assist in Search and Rescue operation. It is not known how many crew members are injured or killed but the "GOLDEN BRILLIANT" oiler is reportedly is heavily in fire due to #IRGC attack.

#BREAKING: Unconfirmed reports about that the "Golden Brilliant" is still underway & not on-fire but a third ship, an oiler named "ASPHALT PRINCESS" is also damaged by the mines of #IRGC Navy in #Oman Sea!

#IRGC affiliated news media reported the attack at "GOPLDEN BRILLIANT" oil tanker near port of #Fujairah. According to them, the oiler hit a maritime mine and exploded.

#BREAKING: Earlier #UKMTO had reported the inicident to the "GOLDEN BRILLIANT" oiler near #Fujairah port was non-Piracy. It is now saying the ship is hijacked. It is highly possible that #IRGC Navy has taken control of the ship as it is near #Iran's waters! It is near #Jask port!

#BREAKING: Latest updates from a source in #Iran Navy. There was an attempt to seize four ships including GOLDEN BRILLIANT oiler in #Oman Gulf using mine. It seems, the hijackers have taken control of "Asphalt Princess" only. My personal opinion is that, they are from #IRGC Navy.

#BREAKING: It is now confirmed by #IRGC affiliated news media that the "Asphalt Princess" is hijacked by #IRGCNavy. There were also attempts to seize three other commercial ships including Golden Brilliant oiler in #Oman Sea. They have used mines in the process of hijacking.

#BREAKING: I was told by a source in #Iran Navy that #IRGC Navy Special Forces who have hijacked the "Asphalt Princess" commercial ship are now transporting it to the port of #Jask in southeast of #Iran.

#BREAKING: An Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer of #USNavy (probably USS Halsey) is headed toward the "Princess Asphalt" which is reportedly hijacked by the #IRGC Navy. A P-8A maritime patrol aircraft probably escorted by the #USAF's F-16Cs will support it from air.

#BREAKING: Unconfirmed yet, but the #Iran's Islamic Regime is reported to be releasing the ASPHALT PRINCESS under diplomatic pressures. It might be now or in 24 hours!

#BREAKING: It is confirmed now. #IRGC Navy released the Asphalt Princess just an hour before a #USNavy destroyer reaches its location. Deployment of the destroyer as well as diplomatic pressures on #Iran's Islamic Regime led to release of the ship!

#IRGC Navy used maritime mines during the simultaneous raid at four commercial ships including "Asphalt Princess" off the coast of #UAE yesterday. Now this MH-53E of #USNavy's Helicopter Mine Countermeasures Squadron (HM) 15 is searching the #Oman Sea for those mines. 👇

I was told that last night, #USNavy had dispatched one of the P-8A Poseidon Maritime Patrol aircraft from VP-4 "Skinny Dragons" based in Sheikh Isa air base of #Bahrain to #Oman Sea to monitor #IRGC Navy activity in the hijacked "Asphalt Princess". It certainly has filmed them.

#USNavy is sending a second MH-53E Sea Dragon of HM-15 on deployment at #Bahrain to the #HormuzStrait & #Oman Sea to continue the mission of the first Helo. They are combating the maritime mines planted by the #IRGC Navy in the waters of #PersianGulf, #Hormuz Strait & #OmanGulf.

#Iran's Islamic Regime think the #IRGC Navy's role in hijacking "Princess Asphalt" can be kept hidden. But I am sorry for them. The audio tape of radio communication of the captain of Princess Asphalt with #UAE coast guard is now released. "5 to 6 Iranian people onboard!“

Very interesting report on how the crew of "Asphalt Princess" sabotaged their engine to prevent #IRGC Navy Special Forces from transferring it to prot of #Jask in #Iran. This is why the ship remained in International waters:
