US releases footage of TOUSKA seizure

U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) has released new video footage showing the boarding and seizure of the Iranian-flagged cargo ship TOUSKA in the Sea of Oman. The footage shows U.S. Marines departing the amphibious assault ship USS Tripoli (LHA 7) and boarding the vessel after it was disabled by the guided-missile destroyer USS Spruance (DDG-111). This release provides a more detailed visual account of the operation, which escalated tensions and threatened the U.S.-Iran ceasefire earlier this week. The incident is part of the ongoing enforcement of the U.S. naval blockade against Iran.
