"Today, an Iranian-flagged cargo ship named TOUSKA, nearly 900 feet long and weighing almost as much as an aircraft carrier, tried to get past our Naval Blockade, and it did not go well for them."
"The U.S. Navy Guided Missile Destroyer USS SPRUANCE intercepted the TOUSKA in the Gulf of Oman, and gave them fair warning to stop."
"The Iranian crew refused to listen, so our Navy ship stopped them right in their tracks by blowing a hole in the engineroom."
"We have full custody of the ship, and are seeing what's on board!"
The U.S. Navy intercepted an Iranian-flagged cargo ship named TOUSKA in the Gulf of Oman after it attempted to breach a naval blockade. The USS SPRUANCE warned the ship to stop, but the Iranian crew did not comply. Consequently, the Navy damaged the ship by blowing a hole in its engineroom. U.S. Marines have taken custody of the TOUSKA, which is under U.S. Treasury Sanctions due to previous illegal activities. The situation is ongoing and may develop further.
