Iran's state broadcaster IRIB reported that Iranian forces seized two light vessels and arrested 50 people in coastal waters off Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz and near Minab, citing violations of Iranian regulations. Details on the nationalities of those detained and the exact timing of the operation were not disclosed. The seizure comes amid heightened tension over control of the strategic waterway, with the US and Iran disputing claims over who controls maritime traffic there.
