The US has intercepted and seized the Iranian-flagged cargo ship Touska in the Gulf of Oman as part of a naval blockade targeting Iranian ports. The Trump administration deployed more than 12 warships and 100 aircraft to restrict Tehran's oil exports, which Trump called a measure to prevent Iran from profiting from oil sales. The blockade comes amid a fragile ceasefire in the US-Iran war that began on 28 February. Iran has called the action "piracy" and threatened retaliation against Gulf states, while the UN's maritime agency says there is no legal basis for blocking international straits.
