US Navy Seizes Iranian Cargo Vessel in Strait of Hormuz Blockade

US Navy Seizes Iranian Cargo Vessel in Strait of Hormuz Blockade

President Trump confirmed that US forces intercepted the Iranian cargo ship Touska as it tried to breach America’s naval blockade in the Strait of Hormuz. When the ship ignored repeated orders to stop, the guided-missile destroyer USS Spruance struck its engine room, disabling the vessel. Touska is now under US Marine custody. The operation highlights Washington’s resolve to enforce its blockade and secure one of the world’s key maritime chokepoints.
