According to the news in Al-Arabia, Iranian Armed Special Forces seized the cargo ship owned by Israeli billionaire Eyal Ofer in the Strait of Hormuz. During the operation, Iranian commandos appear to have raided the ship by helicopter.
IT WAS THE SHIP OF ISRAELI BILLIONAIRE EYAL OFER
The ship was last spotted heading towards the Strait of Hormuz off the coast of Dubai on Friday.
It was reported that the Portuguese flagged cargo ship named MSC Aries was stopped by the Iranians near the port of Fujairat in the United Arab Emirates. It was stated that the ship belonged to the London-based Zodiac Maritime company, owned by Israeli billionaire Eyal Ofer.
The Israeli press acknowledged the relationship between the Portuguese-flagged MSC Aries ship and its relationship with Israel, saying it “half belongs to Israel”.
