El Cuerpo de la Guardia Revolucionaria Islámica de Irán anunció hoy la incautación de dos buques de carga cerca del estrecho de Ormuz , punto estratégico por donde transitaba el 20% del petróleo mundial antes de la guerra. Según funcionarios marítimos, ambos buques fueron atacados antes de su captura. Esto es lo que sabemos sobre las embarcaciones .
Los ataques iraníes se produjeron mientras Estados Unidos mantenía un bloqueo a los puertos de Irán. Ninguna de las partes parece estar reticente a intentar controlar el estrecho, incluso con el alto el fuego aún vigente. Como consecuencia, el tráfico marítimo por la vía marítima prácticamente se ha paralizado , lo que ha puesto a prueba el suministro energético mundial.

Iran's navy said it has seized two cargo ships in the Strait of Hormuz and taken them to the country's coast after reports that three vessels came under fire from Iranian forces.
Nour News, a website affiliated with Iran's Supreme National Security Council, said the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) opened fire on the first ship, the Epaminodes, after it had "ignored the warnings of the Iranian armed forces".
A second ship, named Euphoria, was then stopped after being "fired upon", followed by the targeting of a third vessel, the MSC-Francesca, according to BBC Verify.
IRGC-affiliated outlet Fars News Agency said the Revolutionary Guard was behind the attacks.

Jan De Nul launches second cable laying giaVessels
Jan De Nul has launched William Thomson, the second of two identical subsea cable‑laying vessels (CLVs) currently under construction.
Both vessels have a cargo capacity of 28,000 tons and a length of 215 meters. This makes them the largest of their kind, Jan De Nul said.
Jan De Nul’s two new CLVs have been specially built to install subsea cables, both in shallow and ultra-deep waters down to 4,000 meters. Thanks to their large loading capacity, they can take longer cables on board in a single piece and bridge longer distances with as few subsea cable connections as possible.
Compared to other cable-laying vessels on the market, they therefore also need
