Iran’s navy has claimed four tanker incidents around Hormuz since October 17.
UKMTO has confirmed one: a tanker disabled Friday by an unknown projectile.
Until more are confirmed, the record shows a claimed mining campaign, not a proven one.
Correction: our broadcast said Israel’s army chief defied Netanyahu’s order to strike Iran.
CNN reports a warning from Zamir and a Trump refusal of a joint attack. A defied order is not on record.
The Mach 10 missile claim also fails as stated.
Saudi Arabia's defense minister, Turkey's intelligence chief and Pakistan's army chief sat down in Tehran with Iran's security leadership on 26 October.
Pepe Escobar: "Who was not on the table yesterday in Tehran? The United States, and Israel."

Netanyahu ordered 200 fighter bombers to "bring Iran down to rubble" — and his commanders refused.
That's the account Zulfiqar Ali says his sources cleared him to share on Transition Protocol. Unnamed sources; not independently verified.
Israeli media report a Netanyahu–Zamir clash over Iran before the election; Netanyahu calls it "nonsense." Full episode with military analyst Pravin Sawhney: youtube.com/watch?v=bN1PWzCC…
Iran, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Türkiye met in Tehran on Monday.
Riyadh sent its defense minister. Islamabad, its army chief. Ankara, its intelligence chief.
The statement: they will keep talking.
Who asked? What was decided?
Pepe Escobar, 90 min, Tue 6 PM ET.
Four governments now have a standing channel in Tehran, and none has said what it is for.
Paid members get nine indicators, three weighted scenarios to November 10, and what would prove us wrong.
Hold us to it on November 10.

A unified region means the attacks could not recur, Iran’s president told his Saudi, Pakistani and Turkish guests.
Hosting all three Makkah Alliance members put the region’s newest pact at Iran’s table.
None of them can guarantee Tehran against a renewed US–Israeli attack.
Four transits through Hormuz on October 18, against a prewar norm near 85 a day (IMF PortWatch data).
Araghchi says the strait’s routes and management will not return to prewar form.
Monday’s Tehran statement announced no route change, only an agreement to keep talking.
Tomorrow: Pepe Escobar on Transition Protocol for 90 minutes. Not the usual 30 to 40.
Tuesday, Oct 27, 6 PM ET.
At the center: Monday's Tehran meeting. Iran, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Türkiye at one table.
The statement was one sentence. We cover what it left out.
Correction: Russia’s deliveries to Iran since Lavrov’s October 19 visit came by air.
Our reporting counts 14 heavy cargo aircraft. Calling them tankers, as we have, was wrong.
The only public trace: a disputed sighting at Bushehr. The airlift remains our reporting, not fact.
Saudi Arabia's defense minister went to Tehran today. Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson's read on item one: "Saving Saudi Arabia from collapse."
His view: Turkey and Pakistan, Riyadh's pact partners, "want a peace agreement" — not a war with Ansar Allah. No full readout yet.
Johnson puts Saudi recovery from the war damage at "a minimum of 2 years, and more likely, 5 to 7." Full conversation with Zulfiqar Ali: youtube.com/watch?v=k-4__Fu7…
