IRGC Claims Tanker Strike as Iran Holds Mass Rally and UN Alleges War Crimes (Sep 18, 0927 UTC, 1227 Israel) (Evening Edition)
The IRGC claimed it struck a Togo-flagged tanker attempting an illegal passage through the Strait of Hormuz, while hundreds of thousands rallied in Tehran for the 'Sacrifice for Iran' campaign. A UN fact-finding mission said there are grounds to believe the US committed war crimes in Iran and Tehran committed crimes against humanity. Israeli operations continued in southern Lebanon and Gaza.
