Iran says 4 tankers are still burning after hitting mines.

The Revolutionary Guards also say they halted 2 more vessels south of the strait.

Hormuz traffic averaged 3.3 ships a day as of 25 October, 17% below its 90-day normal of 4.

No independent source has confirmed the toll, which comes only from the Guards’ statement.

Polymarket traders give a US-Iran Hormuz agreement by 31 December 37% odds, up 5 points in a week.
