IRAN ATTACKS OMAN ISLAND NAVIGATING TANKERS ON SOUTHERN ROUTE BREAKING: US SHIPS COME UNDER FIRE REPORTS OF US RESPONSE
[NOVEMBER 12, 2026 (11:45 AM PST]
Scouring and monitoring the news stories for another post, I found something which is largely going unreported.
Of course, the Nvidia story has been leading the last few days--we will get to that--what the folks over at ZeroHedge report should be a major story

Iranian state media said Tuesday that the IRGC destroyed "enemy navigation systems" on the island, and state television claimed the personnel and equipment there were "helping the flow of oil smuggling by the enemy." On Wednesday, three sources with knowledge of the matter confirmed the attack to Reuters, which also confirmed video of smoke rising from the island, though none of the sources could say how much was destroyed.Didamar, also known as Little Quoin Island, sits off the tip of Oman's Musandam Peninsula, right beside the southern corridor. It carries a lighthouse dating to 1914, along with shore radar and radio equipment used to track vessels and coordinate traffic. An unnamed IRGC Navy official told Iran's semi-official Fars news agency that the navigational aids in the south of the strait had been destroyed, and that no vessel Tehran considers unauthorized passed through the route overnight.
IRAN EGGING ON TRUMP TO RESUME WAR
There are also unconfirmed reports of explosions in the city of Sirik, southern Iran. It's claimed the explosions are from US attacks targeting radar installations.
Iran's state news agency IRNA reported an "enemy" strike on the port city in the Hormozgan province. All reports are unverified at this stage. US Central Command (CENTCOM), which is responsible for American operations in the Middle East, has been contacted for comment.
This comes on-the-heels of several tankers have been attacked by Iran in the last week.
