The U.S. Navy announced Thursday that Iran has seized a foreign vessel in the Gulf of Oman.
A Marshall Islands-flagged oil tanker was taken by Iranian forces after leaving Kuwait on its way to Houston.
“The oil tanker issued a distress call during the seizure,” the US Navy’s 5th Fleet said. “Iran‘s actions are contrary to international law and disruptive to regional security and stability. Iran should immediately release the oil tanker.”
