Somali pirates capture Iranian oil tanker

Somali pirates have seized an oil tanker named "Sibo 1," flying the Eritrean flag, which is part of Iran's shadow fleet off the coast of Yemen, redirecting its course to Somalia. The tanker was part of operations considered a tool for Iran to circumvent US sanctions on its oil exports, following the imposition of sanctions by Washington in December. This incident marks the twelfth or thirteenth attack on ships off the coasts of Somalia or the Gulf of Aden in 2025. Although the number of attacks has decreased compared to last year, they still reflect the ongoing threat posed by pirates, linked to security and economic tensions, including Iran's escalation, rising oil prices, and potential cooperation between the Houthis and pirates in the region.
