A second U.S.-sanctioned supertanker ​has entered the Gulf via the Strait of Hormuz, shipping data showed, despite ‌a U.S. blockade on vessels visiting Iranian ports.

Axar.az informs, citing Reuters, that the U.S. Central Command said on X that 10 ​vessels have been turned around and no ships have broken through since the start of ​the blockade on Monday.

Still, Iran's Fars News Agency said on Wednesday that an Iranian ⁠supertanker subject to U.S. sanctions crossed the strait towards Iran's Imam Khomeini port despite the blockade. ​

Fars did not identify the tanker or give further details of its voyage.
