Commandos from Iran’s Revolutionary Guard rappelled down onto a container ship near the Strait of Hormuz and seized the vessel “related to the Zionist regime”, Iran’s state media has said. Iran’s state-run IRNA news agency on Saturday acknowledged the seizure after a video seen by the Associated Press news agency showed the commandos raiding the ship Saturday, an attack a Mideast defence official attributed to Iran amid wider tensions between Tehran and the West.
