The US Central Command said that on October 10, the US military paralyzed a commercial cargo ship in the Gulf of Oman. Previously, the ship's crew ignored multiple warnings and tried to break through the ongoing US maritime blockade against Iran. An American fighter jet hit the stern of the Panamanian-flagged “Ocean Molica” cargo ship, completely paralyzing the ship's propulsion system, but there were no crew injuries. This large cargo ship had previously left an Iranian port and was trying to cross the region's waters at the time of the incident. The US military resumed the naval blockade of all ships entering and leaving Iranian ports on July 14. During a three-month period of strict enforcement, 4 merchant ships have been paralyzed, and 135 vessels have been intercepted and redirected. Furthermore, during the same period, the US military destroyed 10 tankers linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps's multi-billion dollar “shadow fleet” network. The US Central Command said that all sailors are advised to pay attention to and follow the US Central Command's blockade warning. When sailing in the waters near the Gulf of Oman and the Strait of Hormuz, crew members should continue to pay attention to the broadcast of the navigation notice and contact the US Navy through VHF channel 16.
