US says it disabled another commercial ship trying to breach blockade and reach Iran

US forces have intercepted another ship trying to bypass their blockade of Iranian ports. The Gambia-flagged vessel, Lian Star, ignored warnings and was disabled by US aircraft. This marks the sixth such interception, with one ship previously allowed to pass. The blockade, initiated in response to Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz, has disrupted global oil and gas shipments.
