Iran’s seizure of Israel-linked vessel ‘first step’ in retaliation, specialist says • FRANCE 24
Iran’s Revolutionary Guards on Saturday seized a container ship linked to Israel, state media reported. The news came after the US on Friday said it was sending military reinforcements to the region, after Iran vowed retaliation for a deadly strike on the consular section of its Damascus embassy in Syria almost two weeks ago. “This seems to be just the first step potentially in what could be several moves against Israel or Israeli interests in the region,” Jasmine El-Gamal, political analyst and former Pentagon Middle East advisor told FRANCE 24.
