Commandos from Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard have rappelled down onto a container ship near the Strait of Hormuz and seized the vessel.
The seizure followed a suspected Israeli strike this month on an Iranian consular building in Syria that killed 12 peopleIsraeli aviation authorities say they are closing the country's airspace to all flights as it braces for an Iranian drone attack.
Israel has been on heightened alert since an airstrike last week killed two Iranian generals in Syria. Iran accused Israel of being behind the attack and vowed revenge. Israel has not commented on that attack. The head of the U.S. Central Command, Gen. Erik Kurilla, has been in Israel in recent days to coordinate with Israel about the Iranian threats.
Iran has largely avoided directly attacking Israel, despite its targeted killings of nuclear scientists and sabotage campaigns on Iran’s atomic sites. Iran has targeted Israeli or Jewish-linked sites through proxy forces. Zodiac Maritime is part of Israeli billionaire Eyal Ofer’s Zodiac Group. Zodiac declined to comment and referred questions to MSC. Geneva-based MSC acknowledged the seizure and said 25 crew members were on the ship.
