Iran's decision to release seized Talara tanker opens many questions about Hormuz safety - analysis

Mihaela Chircă

Iran chose to release a ship five days after seizing it near the important Strait of Hormuz that sits between the UAE, Oman, and Iran. Iran had forced the Talara tanker and its 21 crew to divert to Iran on November 14. Apparently, it has been let go on its way toward Singapore. The overall incident now leaves many questions. It shows the ease with which Iran can still harass shipping. It's not clear if Iran got a warning from the US or if it decided to release the vessel for other reasons.Iran
