Ayres outlines support for business during Iran war

About this episode

US President Donald Trump says the US Navy has taken custody of an Iranian-flagged vessel that tried to get past the American blockade in the Strait of Hormuz.

In a Truth Social post, the president says US forces have stopped the ship - by blowing a hole in its engine room.

The United States has kept a blockade of Iranian ports in place, while Iran lifted and then reimposed its own blockade at the weekend, firing on several civilian ships.
