    They are even bragging about it as if they were “heroes” in this story. -> https://xcancel.com/AGPamBondi/status/1998875795151024337#m

    From Pam Bondi:

    Today, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Homeland Security Investigations, and the United States Coast Guard, with support from the Department of War, executed a seizure warrant for a crude oil tanker used to transport sanctioned oil from Venezuela and Iran. For multiple years, the oil tanker has been sanctioned by the United States due to its involvement in an illicit oil shipping network supporting foreign terrorist organizations. This seizure, completed off the coast of Venezuela, was conducted safely and securely—and our investigation alongside the Department of Homeland Security to prevent the transport of sanctioned oil continues.

    According to some Telegram channels that I follow, the vessel stolen by the U.S. is reportedly an oil tanker by the name of ‘SKIPPER’ flying the Guyanese flag, previously sanctioned for transporting both Iranian and Venezuelan oil.
