Iran’s state maritime body reported on 28 May that the crew of two Greek tankers seized by its Revolutionary Guards on 27 May had not been detained, adding that they were in good health and were being cared for on board their vessels. This comes after Iranian forces seized two Greek tankers in the Gulf of Friday 27 May. The move came shortly after Tehran warned that it would take “punitive action” against Athens over the confiscation of Iranian oil by the United States from a tanker held off the Greek coast.
