Iran's Strait Authority lists dozens of ships for possible fines or seizure

Iran's Persian Gulf Strait Authority published a list of dozens of vessels it said had violated its transit arrangements and could face future restrictions, including fines or seizure. AP also reported the U.S. blockade had redirected 70 commercial ships and disabled three as of Sunday.

Why this matters. The published list turns Iran's claimed control into a forward enforcement threat that can shape routing and insurance decisions even before another vessel is stopped.
