Tensions have escalated in the Strait of Hormuz after the United States Navy seized an Iranian-flagged ship named “Towska.” Within days of the seizure, Iran launched attacks on three vessels and detained two of them, according to reports. US President Donald Trump said the Iranian ship was captured after ignoring warnings from the US Navy.
In response, Iran condemned the seizure as a violation of the ceasefire and an act of “armed piracy,” warning of swift retaliation. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy later announced that it was closely monitoring maritime traffic in the strait and would take strict action against any violators.
Subsequently, the IRGC claimed to have detained two ships, “MSC Francesca” and “Epaminondas,” alleging that they were operating without authorization, attempting to leave the strait secretly, and tampering with navigation systems. The BBC reported that these claims could not be independently verified.
