المصدر: البوابة | Source: البوابةALBAWABA - The U.S. Department of War said in a statement that American forces have boarded a vessel carrying Iranian oil.
In a post on X, the Pentagon said, "Overnight, U.S. forces carried out a maritime interdiction and right-of-visit boarding of the sanctioned stateless vessel M/T Majestic X transporting oil from Iran, in the Indian Ocean within the INDOPACOM area of responsibility."
The Pentagon added that Washington will continue "global maritime enforcement to disrupt illicit networks and interdict vessels providing material support to Iran, wherever they operate."
In addition, it said, "International waters cannot be used as a shield by sanctioned actors. The Department of War will continue to deny illicit actors and their vessels freedom of maneuver in the maritime domain."
