The department said on social media that U.S. forces interdicted and boarded the stateless, sanctioned vessel Majestic X. &#8220;We will continue global maritime enforcement to disrupt illicit networks and interdict ships anywhere that provide material support to Iran,&#8221; the Pentagon said. Analysts say the operation appears aimed at expanding a maritime blockade and increasing pressure on Iran to enter negotiations after President Trump extended the truce without setting a deadline. Earlier, on April 21 \u2014 prior to the truce extension \u2014 U.S. forces seized the tanker Tiffany, which was bound for China with Iranian oil. Foreign outlets reported the Majestic X was stopped in waters between Sri Lanka and Indonesia, nearly the same location where the Tiffany was detained.
