U.S. Disables Two Vessels Violating Iran Blockade
(CENTCOM) U.S. forces on Friday enforced blockade measures against two Iranian-flagged unladen oil tankers attempting to pull into an Iranian port on the Gulf of Oman. A U.S. Navy F-18 from the USS George H.W. Bush disabled both tankers after firing precision munitions into their smokestacks. More than 50 commercial vessels have been redirected by CENTCOM forces to ensure compliance with the blockade of vessels entering or leaving Iran.
