What happened

US Central Command said US forces disabled the Mozambique-flagged M/T Lavine in the Gulf of Oman after its crew repeatedly attempted to violate the resumed US blockade against Iran and ignored warnings. CENTCOM said the vessel was no longer transiting to Iran. The official release did not identify the cargo, precise position, weapon used, damage extent or subsequent disposition; no crew injuries or pollution were reported.
