IRGC seizes ships in Strait of Hormuz

Iran's SNSF seized two ships that attempted to pass through the Strait of Hormuz and brought them to the Iranian coast. This follows earlier reports that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy intercepted two container ships, the MSC Francesca and the Epaminodes, in the same area. The vessels were allegedly violating Iran's blockade of the strategic waterway. The latest seizure indicates continued Iranian enforcement actions in the region despite ongoing tensions with the United States.
