US Centcom: 'Two days ago, an Iranian-flagged commercial vessel attempted to evade the US blockade after leaving Bandar Abbas, crossing the Strait of Hormuz and sailing along the Iranian coast. The guided-missile destroyer USS Spruance (DDG-111) successfully turned the vessel around, and it made its way back to Iran. So far, ten vessels have been retraced, and no vessel has been able to break through the blockade since it began on Monday.'
