Media reports quoting a US defense official said that Iran's navy forcibly boarded the ship -- in an apparent operation to recover petroleum, which resulted unsuccessful -- and released the Liberian-flagged tanker after holding it for about five hours. There was no distress call issued by Wila, a statement by the US Central Command said. EPA/US NAVY HANDOUT HANDOUT EDITORIAL USE ONLY/NO SALES

DUBAI, 13 APR - La tv di Stato dell'Iran ha annunciato che una nave da cargo "legata a Israele" è stata sequestrata dalle forze della Repubblica islamica nello stretto di Hormuz. Una notizia finora anticipata da media del Golfo e da un'autorità marittima internazionale. "Una porta-container intitolata Mcs Aries è stata presa dalle forze speciali marittime" nel corso di "un'operazione condotta con un elicottero nei pressi dello Stretto di Hormuz", ha scritto l'Irna. L'agenzia di stampa iraniana conferma che la nave "batte bandiera portoghese ed è gestita dalla società Zodiac, che appartiene al capitalista sionista Eyal Ofer", e stava "dirigendosi verso le acque territoriali iraniane".
