Iran forces third vessel to dock in UAE

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy has targeted the Greek-owned commercial vessel Euphoria in the Strait of Hormuz, forcing it to abandon its journey and anchor in Khor Fakkan, United Arab Emirates. This marks the third commercial ship attacked by Iran in recent weeks, escalating tensions in the critical maritime chokepoint. The incident follows previous IRGC seizures and attacks on vessels in the region, including the MSC Francesca and Epaminodes. The forced diversion demonstrates Iran's continued ability to disrupt shipping traffic despite international pressure.
