Default Iran has captured 1 UK Oil Tanker Ship Stena Impero in the Strait of Hormuz.
Just reported on Ch4HD news.

Bound to happen.
The Iranians even used a Miltary Helicopter

Around 23 workers on this Ship

Looks like tit for tat, with iran doing tit.
We caught their ships they caught ours
US sent a drone they shot it
It's a signal they won't be pushed around
Of course this game, played by both sides, is dangerous and may easily lead to accidental escalation

The chess pieces are being shuffled for something preplanned and inevitable. Just like they were before Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria. More or less that simple, isn't it.

You think a provocation is being prepared?

I think Western presence has a fairly broad hold on the vast majority of the Middle East that it didn't have 15 years ago, and Iran currently stands out like a sore thumb. So.

This is bad.I can’t see the Iranians releasing them after we did the same to one of theirs.
It doesn’t leave many other options than military.

Can’t see it ending well.

Why is Hunt
not giving the Iranians back their Tanker?
in Gibraltar waters.
Then our Tanker gets released,


Iranian Military getting on the tanker ship via their Helicopter

USA has said its our problem.

Ch4HD News showed the Crew
mostly from India. They are Safe on the Tanker.

The only way to Solve this
is for the UK to release Iranian Tanker
which is held in in Gibraltar Waters
