हॉर्मुज में बीच समंदर फंसा विदेशी जहाज, ईरान का ‘तय रूट’ नहीं अपनाने का दावा – iran hormuz foreign ship runs aground after ignoring approved route ntc rlch
A foreign container ship got stuck on Wednesday in the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most important maritime trade routes. According to Iranian state television, the ship did not follow the official sea route set by Iran, causing it to run aground in shallow waters and unable to move further.
Although iran It did not immediately share any information about the ship’s name, its flag or its destination. State TV only said that the ship was a foreign container ship and the accident occurred due to choosing the wrong route. Iranian media claimed that all ships passing through Hormuz must follow the route of authority set by the IRGC.
The report said that the IRGC has already warned shipowners, captains and shipping companies around the world that deviation from the prescribed route could have serious consequences.
This incident has come to light at a time when diplomatic talks are going on in Qatar’s capital Doha to make the ceasefire between the two countries permanent after the recent conflict between America and Iran. US President Donald Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff and his son-in-law Jared Kushner have reached Qatar. According to regional officials, technical level talks have begun between representatives of the two sides, although Iran has not officially confirmed these talks.
According to sources, under the interim agreement, Iran and America had agreed to allow ships to pass through Hormuz without duty for 60 days. But along with this, Iran also placed a condition that it will remain in control of the sea routes and in future it wants the right to collect transit fees from ships. America and many Gulf countries have opposed this demand.
It is noteworthy that Hormuz is considered the lifeline of global energy supply. Under normal circumstances, about 20 percent of the world’s crude oil and natural gas is supplied through this sea route. Therefore, any instability in this region can have an impact on the global energy market and international trade.
