Iran says sanctioned tankers reach home shores

Iran's state-affiliated Fars News Agency reports that two Iranian oil tankers have successfully navigated international waters and the Strait of Hormuz to reach the country's shores. One of the vessels is listed under U.S. sanctions and was carrying approximately two million barrels of oil. The transit appears to be a successful run of the U.S. naval blockade, which has sought to interdict Iranian oil shipments. The report serves as a propaganda victory for Tehran, demonstrating its continued ability to move sanctioned cargo.
