US Military Disables Cargo Ship Enforcing Iran Blockade in Gulf of Oman

US military forces, specifically CENTCOM aircraft, disabled the M/V Huda, a Saint Kitts and Nevis-flagged cargo ship, in the Gulf of Oman after it allegedly attempted to breach a US naval blockade of Iran and ignored warnings. This direct military action marks a significant escalation in the enforcement of Iran sanctions, with high confidence in the US strike and medium confidence in the ship's blockade-breaching intent. The reported fires on two freighters in the Strait of Hormuz remain unconfirmed as directly related.
