A U.S. destroyer interdicted two oil tankers that were trying to leave Iran<\/a> on Tuesday, a U.S. official said, as part of the Trump administration\u2019s blockade on Iranian ports.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The official told Reuters<\/u><\/a> that the ships left Chabahar port on the Gulf of Oman before being contacted by the U.S. warship through radio communication. The official added that the tankers were among the six vessels that U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said Tuesday obeyed orders from American forces to turn around and head back to an Iranian port on the Gulf of Oman.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“More than 10,000 U.S. Sailors, Marines, and Airmen along with over a dozen warships and dozens of\u00a0aircraft\u00a0are executing the mission to blockade ships entering and\u00a0departing\u00a0Iranian ports,” CENTCOM said. “During the first 24 hours, no ships made it past the U.S. blockade and 6 merchant vessels<\/a>\u00a0complied with\u00a0direction from U.S. forces to turn around to re-enter an Iranian port on the Gulf of Oman.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The blockade is being enforced impartially against vessels of all nations entering or\u00a0departing\u00a0Iranian ports and coastal areas, including all Iranian ports on the Arabian Gulf and Gulf of Oman,” it added. “U.S. forces are supporting freedom of navigation for vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz to and from non-Iranian ports.”<\/p>\n

The Pentagon<\/a> did not immediately respond Wednesday to a request for comment from Fox News Digital regarding the reported interdiction of the oil tankers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“U.S. Navy guided-missile destroyers are among the assets executing a blockade mission\u00a0impacting\u00a0Iranian ports. The blockade is being enforced impartially against vessels of all nations entering or leaving coastal areas or ports in Iran,” CENTCOM said Tuesday. “A typical destroyer has a crew of more than 300 Sailors that are highly trained in conducting offensive and defensive maritime operations.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

CENTCOM Commander Adm. Brad Cooper added in a statement that “a blockade of Iranian ports has been fully implemented as U.S. forces maintain maritime superiority in the Middle East.”<\/p>\n

\u00a0Cooper said an estimated 90% of Iran\u2019s economy is supported by international trade<\/a> by sea.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“In less than 36 hours since the blockade was implemented, U.S. forces have completely halted economic trade going into and out of Iran by sea,” he also said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
