CENTCOM post, machine translation:
The United States Central Command Marine Corps from the 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit boarded the oil tanker "Wen Yao" on July 16 in the Gulf of Oman for verification.

To date, U.S. forces have altered the course of 3 commercial vessels attempting to break the blockade, disabled 1 vessel that did not comply with orders, and boarded 1 vessel to ensure the complete enforcement of the ongoing U.S. maritime blockade against Iran.

The Strait of Hormuz and its surrounding waters remain free and open, except for vessels attempting to violate the "steel wall" of the U.S. blockade. 🇺🇸
