In the US, they announced the arrest of an Iranian oil tanker with oil worth 123 million dollars.

The District of Columbia Court issued a warrant for the detention of the Iranian oil tanker Grace 1, which is currently located in the territorial waters of Gibraltar with 2,1 million barrels of oil, worth about 123 million dollars. A few dozen kilometers from the territorial waters of Gibraltar is an American warship, which, according to experts, will try to arrest the Iranian sea vessel as soon as the last enters neutral waters.

Analysts draw attention to the fact that as soon as the US military tries to take illegal measures against the Iranian oil tanker, Iran will immediately take symmetrical measures in the Persian Gulf and against American ships, including military ones.

“If Washington wants to take the escalation path, Iran will not stand aside and will completely unhindered attack American oil tankers at its borders, which, by the way, has already been warned in Tehran”- the specialist draws attention.

It should be clarified that despite the liberation of the Iranian oil tanker by the authorities of Gibraltar, the ship does not enter the Mediterranean Sea.
