JUST IN: The US Navy has just "blown a hole" through the engine room of an Iranian-flagged cargo ship that tried getting through the Navy blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. "Vacate your engine room! Vacate your engine room," American forces could he heard warning the Touska cargo ship. "Today, an Iranian-flagged cargo ship named TOUSKA, nearly 900 feet long and weighing almost as much as an aircraft carrier, tried to get past our Naval Blockade, and it did not go well for them..." Trump said on Truth. "The Iranian crew refused to listen, so our Navy ship stopped them right in their tracks by blowing a hole in the engineroom." "Right now, U.S. Marines have custody of the vessel... We have full custody of the ship, and are seeing what’s on board!" "After Touska’s crew failed to comply with repeated warnings over a six-hour period, Spruance directed the vessel to evacuate its engine room," U.S. Central Command added. "Spruance disabled Touska’s propulsion by firing several rounds from the destroyer’s 5-inch MK 45 Gun into Touska’s engine room. U.S. Marines from the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit later boarded the non-compliant vessel, which remains in U.S. custody." Video: U.S. Central Command

🚨 TRUMP JUST BLEW A HOLE IN AN IRANIAN CARGO SHIP The regime is likely PANICKED after getting publicly humiliated. They have spent the last 24 hours PROCLAIMING they "control" the Strait of Hormuz. Then they tried breaching the blockade and got pummeled. EASILY. 🔥 TRUMP: "It did not go well for them. The US Navy guided missile destroyer USS Spruance intercepted the TOUSKA in the Gulf of Oman and gave them a fair warning to stop." "The Iranian crew refused to listen so our Navy ship stopped them right in their tracks by blowing a hole in the engine room. Right now US Marines have custody of the vessel."
