Iran’s Revolutionary Guards claimed to have taken the British-flagged ship into port with its 23-strong crew, and Iranian officials claimed it had infringed maritime regulations.

Puts me in mind of this;

And no one has bombed I ran yet we need to bond these parasites into the Stone Age

It’s time to get The SBS Boyz out to go hunt some bad Guys, 🤦‍♂️ this is not going to end Nicely for IRAN

So it’s OK for a ship to hit another ship and takeoff? Oil tanker hits commercial fishing trawler. What’s so hard about that? Make it look like the Iranians are trying to steal the ship? Yep! MSM sad. Warmongering for their master. ImpeachDonaldTrumpNOW

Anything can be recreated with some people with mask on hoaxeye your take on this ?

Iran wit the shits lol

Britain and American causing distraction around the world. Leave the Iranians alone! leaveiranalone

If this isn’t a clear violation of UNCLOS I don’t know what is! Whatever happened to innocentpassage IMOHQ SailorsSociety hrw

If britain had a strong leader instead of what they have maybe they would deal with iran like america dies

The Guardian of the Revolution.

uh-oh, 23, hopefully that does not turn out to be fatal.

Saudi Arabia....has no military...no knowledge of flying F 16 or usages of American weapons....US defenging Saudis ?

🤔

Huge challenge now.....Iran learned from Kim Jun un...n Korea.....one little fat short man challenging US.....why not Iran that 40 years getting ready for war in Persian golf.....Iran can destroy Dubai in 1 hour....

A fighter jet could have scared off the helicopter used in the hijaking. Why wasn’t one sent? A fighter jet would have made it to the scene within minutes.

WWWAAAAARRRRRRRRR

S5, rajg c zffk

I’m all for countries developing and getting economic support , however Iran keeps going after shit, keeps supporting regional issues to start conflict . Iran needs to be nuked off the map

It’s not a british ship , it’s flying a flag of convenience. Keep it Iran lbc

That’s some beautiful and clear footage. Thanks, Iran.

The temperature is raised.

LOOK AT THAT. Iran releases FOOTAGE, says the crew is safe and healthy, and it doesn't seem like anybody is mad except who? The UK and the US. And, over what? Oil. For what? A capitalistic economy. This is some 2000 or 90's trouble not 2019. We should planting more wind mills

‘Turn 360 degrees’ that will make us go the same direction 🙈

Something doesn’t smell right about this whole Iran thing🤔

Bomb the shits

I don't understand why in first place UK seized Iranian vessel.. I also don't care

Uk is just a pawn of US.

Iran asked the tanker to change course ‘360 degrees’....this would mean a full circle and ending up in exact same direction. Why has no one else picked up on this?

So iran is saying that it's none of their business if they want to sell oil to syria but they don't understand that when a country is sanctioned no other countries in the world can do business with syria that's common sense right?

Iran British warships had a major overhaul, they retrofitted BIG Phones SMALL guns. 😎😎😎😎😎

Should bomb the guardian and any other news outlet or journalist that's spouting lies to start a war. Not a British ship but of course keep lying to start a war then people want you to feel sorry when a journalist gets done in ,fuck them

We fightin for oil again and I afraid

Death to Iran, death to Khomeini

So often, there is something actually naive and childish in the moves regimes made.

Difficult to understand the odd reasoning of the Iranian gov, it seems they are trying to start something they wouldn’t have the capacity to fight & overcome. Or maybe it’s for its population Iran wants to pretend they can do whatever they want without being met with a response.

The UK 'warned' the revolutionary guard, by radio, at the time about taking the ship. Unfortunately, the UK didn't back up their words and now their navy is pretty much an irrelevant joke.

Let’s light it up

It's like a real game of battleships give them their ship back & give our 2 ships back? childish

Since when did Stena Line transport oil through war zones!? Seem like a bit of a leap from the Irish ferry route tbh

Iranian regime is a hopeless case, world should stand together against this radical regime

So, they stole the ship in international waters, and showed a video of it. What more does the world need to see Realize that Iran is threat to us all? If they are not dealt with, they will be embolden 2 do more. Sometimes action IS required

Why weren’t these ships protected by naval vessels? The Iranians already said they were going to steal one, why the hell would Britain ignore it? Iran TOLD them of their evil plans....why not safeguard against it? Hey, I’m gonna steak your car! So you leave the keys in it?

When does Iran’s action cross over into acts of war?

Comeuppance for the U.K nothing but a Vassal State .... Play silly games ... Win silly Prizes ......

The British government is too afraid to act because they have more Arabs and Iranians then in the middle east.. stop welcome immigrants and start protect yourselves!

This news was sheltering from Syria to Turkey saw the French ships came to my mind. A strong country is needed in the region. Ces nouvelles hébergeait de la Syrie en Turquie a vu les navires français sont venus à l'esprit. Un pays fort est nécessaire dans la région Elysee

NOW IRAN CAUSING OWN GOAL WHILE THE EXPERTS ARE GETTING LEGITIMACY FOR FOREIGN POLICY ACTION!IT MIGHT BE A VERY INTERESTING FILM! OUR EYES ARE ON THE SCREEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Iran on 'dangerous path' with seizure of Stena Impero, says UKForeign secretary Jeremy Hunt says Britain’s response will be ‘considered but robust’ if UK-flagged tanker is not released Just what the Americans want! A war with Iran. Why doesn’t Europe do something constructive about the mess the grifter and draft dodger realDonaldTrump has made! He will send our children to fight a war, but his halfwit sons won’t sign up! This should have been pointed out to us when we seized their tanker. Funny how it's fair game when the UK seizes an Iranian ship but it's rogue behaviour when Iran does it to UK ships. Don't you guys feel a bit ashamed of your hypocrisy?

Hunt 'extremely concerned' as Iran seizes two British-linked oil tankersNo UK citizens thought to be on either vessel taken by Iranian forces in strait of Hormuz on Friday Send in the SAS to get them back! Sounds like a job for SBS NegarMortazavi The legalities of the UK seizure of a tanker heading for Syria with oil from Iran intrigues me. One refers to EU sanctions against Syria, but Iran is not a member of EU. And EU as a principle doesn’t impose its sanctions on others. That’s what the US does
