China expresses concern over US interception of Iranian-flagged cargo ship in Gulf of Oman

China expressed concern on Monday over the US Navy's interception of an Iranian-flagged cargo ship in the Gulf of Oman, where the USS Spruance fired on the Touska after it reportedly ignored orders to halt. The incident marks the first use of force since the American naval blockade began last Friday, prompting Iran to accuse Washington of violating a fragile two-week ceasefire expiring Wednesday.

US Navy destroyer USS Spruance intercepted Iranian-flagged cargo vessel TOUSKA in the Gulf of Oman on Saturday after the ship ignored repeated warnings to stop. The destroyer fired several rounds from its 5-inch MK 45 gun into the vessel's engine room, disabling its propulsion. US Marines from the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit boarded and took custody of the ship. Iran responded by launching drones toward US warships and announced the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, citing violation of ceasefire conditions by the US naval blockade.
