US Seized Oil Tankers Sail Towards American Shores

The U.S. Navy has seized several oil tankers carrying Iranian crude oil in recent months and they are now sailing towards the United States.

According to Bloomberg, the vessels, including the Tiffany and Majestic X, have been spotted near the coast of Brazil over the past week.

The U.S. military seized these ships in April after they were found carrying approximately 4 million barrels of Iranian crude oil, which is valued at around $600 million.

U.S. President Donald Trump mentioned the seizure at an event in Florida on May 1, saying 'We are like pirates. We took over the vessel and we confiscated all the cargo and the oil.'
