Earlier today, Iranian commandos raided and detained an "Israeli" ship near the Strait of Hormuz onboard a helicopter on Saturday.

A Middle Eastern defense official said that Iran was behind the attack. The vessel -MSC Aries- was flying the flag of Portugal with 20 Filipinos on board and was bound for India.

The ship is partially owned by Zodiac Maritime, a company part of “Ofer Global” chaired by “Israeli” billionaire and businessman Eyal Ofer.

The detained ship is currently being moved to Iranian waters - according to Iran’s official news agency “IRNA”.
