SAEDNEWS: The U.S. Indo-Pacific Command claimed that American forces seized the sanctioned and unflagged vessel Davina during a nighttime operation in the Indian Ocean. According to Washington, the massive oil tanker had been under sanctions since October 2024 due to its alleged involvement in transporting Iranian oil.
According to the political service of the Saed News Agency website, the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command claimed that its forces carried out a nighttime operation in the Indian Ocean to seize a stateless and sanctioned vessel named Davina.
The U.S. military command, in a hostile statement, added that it continues its operations under the banner of “maritime law enforcement” on a global scale in order to disrupt networks supporting Iran.
According to published information, the United States sanctioned the vessel in October 2024 due to its oil-related trade and connections with Iran. Davina is described as a supertanker capable of carrying two million barrels of crude oil.
