Satellite imagery has captured several fast attack boats of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy near the coast of Kargan, north of the Strait of Hormuz. These boats were involved in an operation to seize two large vessels, continuing Iran's pattern of maritime interdiction in the strategic waterway. The incident follows recent attacks on commercial shipping in the region and ongoing tensions over the strait's security. The IRGC's naval presence remains a significant factor in the volatile situation.
