Footage released on November 9 shows smoke rising from Oman’s Didamar Island in the Strait of Hormuz, amid Iranian claims that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) struck the island. Iranian state media reported that the attack destroyed what it described as ‘enemy navigation aid systems’ near the southern shipping corridor. An unnamed IRGC source reportedly said the strike had halted oil smuggling through the route. Satellite imagery from the European Union’s Copernicus programme showed thermal activity on the island on November 8. However, Reuters could not confirm what was burning or independently verify Iran’s claims. The exact date the eyewitness footage was filmed also remains unverified
