Earlier today the IRGC opened fire on three vessels moving through the Strait of Hormuz and then seized two of them. Now we wait to see the US reaction and how this will impact the possibility of ongoing talks. Meanwhile, there's mixed reporting on the number of Iranian vessels that have successfully evaded the US blockade with different assessments from the Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, Lloyd's List and Fox News.
