4 Iranian tankers seized : another stuck as pressure intensifies
Reports indicate U.S. forces have seized four Iranian oil tankers, escalating maritime pressure amid ongoing tensions.
The vessels identified include:
– Sevin (Suezmax)
– DORENA (VLCC)
– TIFANI (VLCC)
– A fourth tanker seized in the Arabian Sea, details not yet confirmed
At the same time, a fifth tanker, DERYA (VLCC), remains stranded in India, unable to offload its crude cargo.
