TehranIran threatens Sinokor’s tankers with legal action from 1 November.
It is the first time Iran has threatened a named shipowner over its Strait of Hormuz rules.
Iran’s sanctioned strait authority lists more than 120 ships as legitimate targets.
Iran says it took enforcement action against 7 ships, and is not known to have enforced its rules except by attack.
Polymarket traders give a US-Iran Hormuz agreement by 2 November a 6% chance, down 8 points in a week.
