More than 300 million liters of oil are feared to have sunk in the southern part of the strait.
The ship was one of two oil tankers that caught fire after hitting mines in the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday, Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps said, according to state media. There has been no independent confirmation of the events.
Iran has restricted traffic through the strait since war broke out with the United States and Israel in February. The United States has responded by blockading Iranian ports. Iran has recently claimed several times that tankers have been hit by mine explosions in the strait.
