Britain claims to have seized a ship in waters near Fujairah

Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - International Service: According to the Associated Press, the British Maritime Operations Center has announced that it has received a report of an incident 38 nautical miles northeast of Fujairah.

 

The center's report states that a ship was seized while mooring in Fujairah and is now moving towards Iranian territorial waters.

 

The British Maritime Operations Center did not announce the name of the ship and said that the investigation in this regard is ongoing. The port of Fujairah is one of the most important oil export terminals of the United Arab Emirates and one of the country's key ports outside the Persian Gulf.

 

The report also claims that Iran has seized several ships associated with these countries since the start of the US-Zionist war.

 

It is also stated that the aggression of the US and the Zionist regime against Iran on 9th of March 1404 (2021) has disrupted shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, and this situation has led to a shortage of fuel and energy on a global scale.

 

Iran has previously announced that if the US-Zionist war is completely ended and the naval blockade is lifted, it is ready to guarantee the security of shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, subject to certain considerations.
