Iran's government released footage showing its forces seizing the Panamanian-flagged MSC Francesca and another vessel, Epaminondas, in the Strait of Hormuz, with Panama condemning the action as illegal. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) accused the ships of navigation tampering and lacking permits, while reports place the incident amid a disputed U.S.-announced ceasefire extension in an ongoing conflict. Multiple sources confirm the seizures, though details on context and aftermath remain unverified.
