The U.S. has announced a formal blockade of Iranian ports and coastal areas.

This is illegal action. All vessels are advised to immediately return to port if leaving

and discontinue transit to Iran if that is your next port of call. Do not attempt to breach the

blockade. Vessels will be boarded for interdiction and seizure transiting to or from an Iranian port.

Turn around and prepare to be boarded. If you do not comply with this blockade, we will use force.

The whole of the United States Navy is ready to force compliance. Out.
