WANA (Apr 15) – Maritime tracking data indicates that at least two Iran-linked vessels—a sanctioned very large crude carrier (VLCC) and a bulk carrier transporting goods—have transited international waters and entered Iranian territorial waters, a development that places the official narrative of a “complete maritime blockade” by the United States Central Command under serious scrutiny.
