US Navy seizes Iran-linked vessel with Chinese arms

President Donald Trump has publicly criticized what he called 'China's unexpected support for Iran' in an interview with CNBC. His remarks come after U.S. forces seized the cargo ship 'Tosca' near the Strait of Hormuz, which had departed from Port Klang, Malaysia, and was heading to Bandar Abbas, Iran. Trump stated he had expected a mutual understanding with Beijing, but pointed to the ship's cargo and its transit through Chinese-linked ports as a negative development. U.S. officials intercepted and inspected the vessel before it entered Iranian waters, drawing renewed attention to Beijing's potential role in Iran's supply chains.
