                    "The US has pushed back on the IRGC\u2019s claims, dismissing them as an attempt to increase oil prices ahead of US elections.Iran says that seven oil tankers have been struck and sustained damage in the Strait of Hormuz, the largest single-day toll for the waterway since the United States and Israel started their war against Iran on February 28.Iran\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said in a statement on Thursday that four of the vessels were transferring oil when they were targeted and caught fire overnight. The other three were disabled after striking mines.Recommended Stories list of 3 itemslist 1 of 3\u2018You have to sacrifice\u2019: Trump voters stay loyal as US midterms approachlist 2 of 3Netanyahu promises Iran regime change: Can Israel topple Tehran government?list 3 of 3Rising costs and tight budgets strain Americans ahead of midterm electionsend of listThe claims could not be independently verified, and the report did not provide details about possible casualties or the tankers\u2019 flags.The IRGC also warned that it could strike US bases across the Middle East if Washington moves to help tankers transit other parts of the strait.\u201cThe US military must know that if this trend continues, the conflict will extend to its bases in the region,\u201d the IRGC said in a statement on its Sepah News website. \u201cThis is a serious warning.\u201dIran claims control over Hormuz, a strategic shipping route through which one-fifth of the world\u2019s oil supplies passed before war broke out. It regularly attacks ships that attempt to navigate the strait without its authorisation.But the US military has been escorting vessels through the waterway in increasing numbers, with Iran responding by stepping up attacks.US President Donald Trump said on Thursday that \u201cIran is doing everything they can to drive up the price of oil prior to the US Midterm Election\u201d.In a post on his Truth Social platform, he added: \u201cThey are making up fake hits, mines, and everything else because more oil is coming through the Hormuz Strait now than it did even prior to the beginning of the conflict.\u201dA US Central Command spokesperson, speaking anonymously to Al Jazeera, also called Iran\u2019s mine claims incorrect.The spokesperson said US forces have cleared the international shipping lanes of mines and that Iran is using missiles and drones.The strait remains open, the spokesperson said, with 95 percent of vessels getting through.The attacks, the spokesperson added, show Tehran\u2019s \u201cdesperation\u201d under the US blockade, which cuts Iran off from the resources it needs to rebuild the military capabilities the US has said it destroyed.Americans want \u2018relief\u2019 from war costs\u201cThe number of ships and tankers attacked every single day is increasing, and Iran is saying it is continuing to do this because they are not going to allow any change in that situation,\u201d said Al Jazeera\u2019s Mohamed Vall, reporting from Tehran.\u201cThey have full control over the Strait of Hormuz right now, they say.\u201dVall said there is also talk in Tehran about an imminent escalation in the war, with the Iranians expecting the US to attack even before US midterm elections in early November.\u201cThe IRGC army chief has boasted that Iran is more ready than anytime before, and has produced enough weapons and equipment to wage a symmetrical war against the United States,\u201d he said.Reporting from the US White House, Al Jazeera\u2019s Kimberly Halkett said: \u201cStriking Iran does not appear to serve any Republican interests\u201d, adding that pre-election polls tell the same story for Trump\u2019s political party.\u201cWhat we\u2019ve seen in surveys in recent months, and as of today, is that most Americans want relief from their tax money going to pay for any potential war with Iran that is ramped up,\u201d Halkett said.\u201cThere is real frustration over the rising cost for everyday Americans, given the rising fuel prices that have occurred as a result of this conflict\u00a0 \u2026 As a result, the US president is having to make the case.\u201cThe pressure is on the president, and it\u2019s not just from the opposition party,\u201d she said. \u201cIt is also from within the Republican Party as well.\u201d"
