The sanctioned crude oil tanker Alicia has passed through the Strait of Hormuz via a toll route controlled by Iran's regime between Hormuz Island and Larak Island. This transit appears to be a direct challenge to the U.S. naval blockade, which has intercepted multiple tankers attempting to enter or leave Iranian ports. The route suggests Iran is asserting control over a specific maritime corridor within the strait.
