[0:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=6) At least four more ships in the Strait of Hormuz that weren't following Iranian procedures and were sailing dangerously. The kids are showing each one, anyway.

[0:16](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=16) Good. Uh… They were hit and caught fire.

[0:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=21) You can see this one was hit. Now, I don't know—the impact too apparently seems pretty heavy.

[0:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=26) Yes, it looks like the fuel tank caught fire.

[0:30](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=30) And I think that's the crew trying to escape.

[0:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=35) And it's burning. That's what happens. Look, they came to help this one too.

[0:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=40) They're trying to put it out, but… The fire is extremely intense and severe.

[0:46](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=46) You can see at least two small ships using their pumps to put out the fire.

[0:54](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=54) No, obviously, there are also statements from the IRGC.

[0:56](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=56) Basically, no one is following our procedures.

[0:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=59) Now, because the area is dangerous too, sometimes they run into mines and things like that.

[1:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=63) This is a different image, right? Yes, this one's different.

[1:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=68) We also had one or two in daylight. The kids have each one of those too.

[1:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=74) If they want to show you this column of smoke, it's completely clear at that end.

[1:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=81) In the early hours today, you can see the smoke rising up.

[1:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=86) It could be around here. You can see what a huge column of smoke it is.

[1:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=96) Well, uh, we don't— we don't have details about this now, as for where these ships belonged.

[1:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=101) No, this owner, UKMTU, announces things very late and with very limited information.

[1:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=108) It's basically abandoned to a large extent the job it was supposed to do, and what it was built for. This—I'm sorry.

[1:56](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=116) This video is exclusive to our program, the Bakht-e Iran program, which one of the local fishermen sent this video to us, and the video is actually of a ship being hit, and, well, the smoke from these is very, very clear.

[2:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=131) I don't know exactly where this is, probably where it might be located.

[2:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=134) But this rock here, I think this must be on the south side of the gorge, I suspect.

[2:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=139) I don't know. He says, "I don't know, this big—" Anyway, in the end, he didn't give us any more details, he just sent us a video.

[2:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=143) Where he's gone. Yeah. Hopefully he'll take care of himself, so nothing happens to him.

[2:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=149) It's okay if he doesn't send us a video now.

[2:33](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=153) I suspect it must actually be around Salameh.

[2:37](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/HUIwcNQTiEzg/en/reports-of-ships-hit-and-fires-in-the-strait-of-hormuz?t=157) Well—God willing, best.
