There are reports of another incident in the Strait of Hormuz.

Reports are emerging of another incident in the Strait of Hormuz. The container ship Selen, which departed from the port of Sharjah (UAE) and intended to transit Hormuz and reach Karachi (Pakistan), attempted to breach the blockade. The vessel was sailing under the flag of Saint Kitts and Nevis, a Caribbean nation.

However, as the container ship approached the Strait of Hormuz, IRGC high-speed boats moved towards it.



Here is what the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' naval forces, Sardar Tangsiri, said about this:

The container ship SELEN was returned to the IRGC Navy for failing to comply with legal protocols and not having permission to transit the Strait of Hormuz. We have deported it. Passage of any vessel through the Strait of Hormuz is permitted only with the consent of Iran's maritime sovereignty.



The vessel is currently located south of the Iranian island of Qeshm. It's marked with a circle on a map fragment from a popular ship tracking service.

Tehran notes that the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed to vessels linked to the United States, Israel, and their allies until the end of the war they are waging against the Islamic Republic. At the same time, the United States is pointing to the growing likelihood of an amphibious operation against Iran, particularly in the Strait of Hormuz. This is either disinformation aimed at distracting Iran from another attack, or Washington is laying its cards on the table in an attempt to pressure Iran into making certain concessions to Trump.

    The container ship SELEN was returned back

    It's good that the Iranians didn't drown him.

        This is exactly what the Zionists are waiting for.
        So that Iran represents evil to everyone.
        And Israel and the United States played the role of the conqueror of the evil dragon.
        Do not wait.
        Iran demonstratively let the violator go home.
        He thereby said: "I could send you to the bottom. But you are not my enemy. Go in peace."
        I wouldn't be surprised to learn that this was a provocation staged by US intelligence agencies.

    In the 4th week of the war, Iran retains control over the Strait of Oman and actively operates its boats.
    Well done, keep it up!
    In this scenario, the American landing force has no chance.

        Yes, Captain! What's more, he did it, even before the fighting started! And if someone here and there writes something different, don't believe them! They're marginalized! /laughs/ :)

      I'd like to hope for the best. There was also a lot of optimism about Iran and Venezuela's air defense systems.

          Can Iran consider the last 47 years of continuous and increasing sanctions a "blessing"?! And there too (within their country... as in any other), the concept of "former grace" for persons in power and governance (in the same IRGC), and a commoner, from among the "mere mortals", was probably incomparably different...?! winked
          Well, I suppose so... wink
          ...
          However... in other countries too, the concept is - "all former grace", may differ significantly for different segments of the population (!). what Moreover, they differ very strikingly...

          A couple of weeks ago, I bought a box of beef with green peas for ridiculously cheap. So, I'm wondering if I should buy some more? :)

            All normal people buy salt, matches, buckwheat, and, of course, toilet paper before the end of the world. laughing

              Toilet paper? I can't remember when I bought it. When I lived with a woman, the woman did the buying. And now, "-burdocks are our everything!" (C) What advertising brochures! /laughs/ :)

    And Trump said he sank all the Iranian ships. Was he lying?

      All the ships! And the photo shows missile boats. Boats and ships—can you spot the difference? Are they chasing every Trump boat now? (Joke)

        No, I don't feel it. Iran was relying on missile boats, not large ships. So why did Trump sink them? If you don't want to chase missile boats, then you haven't deprived Iran of its navy.

            Iran has a mosquito net. You don't destroy Iran's missile boats, which means the Iranian fleet is intact.

        And in the photo there are missile boats.

        Rather, these are patrol boats with a displacement of about 15 tons, but high-speed.
        A container under a canopy is something like an ATGM. It's unlikely that such boats can be considered missile boats, which by definition carry anti-ship missiles.

      Same question. They clearly didn't threaten him with an ancient Kalashnikov to make him come back. This is about boats.
      Apparently our admirals will have to learn from Iran how to fight successfully without a navy.

    Why haven't they arrested the offender? We should act like NATO. Confiscate the vessel and cargo, and prosecute the crew.

      Let's say the Persians confiscate a ship, but where will they put it? Any of their ports is under fire. The Americans and Jews will sink any ship flying their flag.

    Either this is disinformation aimed at distracting Iran from another avenue of attack, or Washington is revealing its cards in advance, trying to put pressure on Iran.
    They could very well be preparing a double or even triple strike; the Strait of Hormuz will definitely be attacked, but what will happen before that? Or immediately after?

    And what is the cargo in the containers? Perhaps that is the problem.
