☄️ Trump: We targeted and seized an Iranian-flagged ship

Trump's post, machine translation:
Today, a cargo ship flying the Iranian flag named "Tosca," which is nearly 900 feet long and weighs about the same as an aircraft carrier, attempted to breach our naval blockade, but things did not go well for them.

The USS Spruance, a guided-missile destroyer of the United States Navy, intercepted the "Tosca" in the Gulf of Oman and gave them a fair warning to stop. The Iranian crew did not comply with this order, so our naval vessel stopped them right there by creating a hole in the engine room.

Currently, U.S. Marines have control of this ship. The "Tosca" is under U.S. Treasury sanctions due to its previous history of illegal activities.
We have complete control of this ship and are examining its contents!

President Donald J. Trump
