Claim 3: “Six commercial vessels were reported struck in and around the Strait of Hormuz on October 11, including five tankers and a container ship”
DISPUTED
The claim states six vessels (five tankers, one container ship) were struck on October 11. However, the web search results provide conflicting data: one source reports five separate incidents on a Monday (four tanker attacks), while another mentions eleven tankers under attack during a specific week. There is no single consistent number across the provided evidence to confirm the 'six vessels' figure.
