CENTCOM announced that it attacked the M/V HUDA, a cargo ship attempting to bypass the blockade of Iranian ports. CENTCOM forces disabled a commercial vessel in the Gulf of Oman, Nov. 7, after the ship's civilian crew ignored repeated warnings and attempted to breach the naval blockade against Iran several times. A US military aircraft fired precision munitions at the stern of the St. Kitts-flagged M/V Huda, disabling the ship after CENTCOM forces directed the crew to abandon targeted areas. The cargo ship attempted to enter regional waters after visiting an Iranian port.
