The US Central Command (CENTCOM) announced that it disabled a commercial ship and rerouted five others as part of the naval blockade on Iran, according to unverified reports. The command released footage of the USS Donald Cook operating in the Arabian Sea. The reports did not specify the nationality of the disabled ship, the timing of the operation, or whether there were casualties. The naval blockade has been a key component of US pressure on Iran, with previous incidents including the disabling of an oil tanker in early June, as The Zioneer reported.
