# Iran seized two ships in the Strait of Hormuz, tightening its grip on the strategic waterway, after US president Donald Trump indefinitely called off attacks with no sign of peace talks restarting. Iran’s Tasnim news agency reports the Revolutionary Guards had seized two vessels for maritime violations and escorted them to Iranian shores. It was the first time Iran has seized ships since the beginning of the war. The US seized an Iranian cargo vessel on Saturday and boarded a huge Iranian oil tanker in the Indian Ocean yesterday.
