<p>Two months ago, Britain detained an oil tanker in Gibraltar that was suspected of violating European Union sanctions. The U.S. says the Panamanian-flagged ship, a super oil tanker with around $100 million worth of crude on board, was in fact owned by Iran and aiding the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corp, which was officially designated a <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/statement-president-designation-islamic-revolutionary-guard-corps-foreign-terrorist-organization/">Foreign Terrorist Organization</a> by the U.S. in April. The ship has now been released and is bound for Greece, or at least that&#8217;s what Iran claims.</p>
<p>The ship was detained after America notified British authorities that the ship was flying under a proxy flag and was in reality owned by Iran and, according to the U.S., involved in &#8220;illicit shipments to Syria from Iran by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC),&#8221; as reported by <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2019/08/17/world/us-warrant-seizure-iran-oil-tanker-gibraltar-intl/index.html">CNN</a>. The US government says that the oil, which was designated for delivery at the Syrian port of Baniyas, would be used to aid dictator Bashar al-Assad in his civil war. Such an action would be a direct violation of E.U. sanction.</p>
