Iran's Hormuz authority lists 77 ships for 'violating' its transit rules

Iran's Persian Gulf Strait Authority published an updated list of 77 vessels accused of 'violating Iranian protocols' in the Strait of Hormuz, warning they face restrictions on future passage including fines, detention or confiscation, and said ships cooperating with the US would be added.

Why this matters. The list is the enforcement arm of Iran's restricted-zone plan and raises legal risk for shipowners who use US-escorted routes.
