Watch The Moment Iran seized the British Oil Tanker

Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) have released footage showing a British oil tanker being seized in the Strait of Hormuz on Friday.

The Stena Impero tanker “was confiscated by the Revolutionary Guards at the request of Hormozgan Ports and Maritime Organisation when passing through the Strait of Hormuz, for failing to respect international maritime rules”.

The video of the incident showed Iranian soldiers in black ski masks rappelling from a helicopter onto the vessel.
