– Watch: Iran Seizes 2nd Foreign Crude Tanker In Under A Week:
Iran has seized a second foreign tanker in under a week, this time in the strategic Strait of Hormuz – a key transit point of much of the world’s global oil – in a daring Wednesday naval operation carried out by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
The captured Panamanian-flagged oil tanker has been identified by the US Navy’s 5th Fleet as the Niovi. Some dozen IRGC fast boats could be seen swarming the vessel in footage published by the US military.
