Iran ‘Illegally’ Seized Commercial Tanker in Hormuz Strait: US CENTCOM
The US Central Command (CENTCOM) said on Sunday that Iranian forces “illegally” boarded and seized a commercial tanker in international waters in the Strait of Hormuz on Friday.
The Marshall Islands-flagged M/V Talara was seized after Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) forces arrived by helicopter and boarded the vessel, CENTCOM said in a statement.
The IRGC then moved the tanker into Iranian territorial waters, where it remains, it added.
According to British maritime security firm Ambrey, the Talara was traveling from the UAE to Singapore when it suddenly changed course while transiting the Gulf of Oman on Friday and headed toward Iranian waters after three small boats approached the vessel 20 nautical miles east of the UAE’s Khor Fakkan.

Showkat Vaisi Executed in Damghan Prison
The death sentence for Showkat Vaisi, a female inmate, was carried out at dawn on Sunday, November 16, 2025, in Damghan Prison. The charge brought against her was related to drug offenses. Under the mullahs’ rule in Iran, the operatives of the Revolutionary Guards’ network, who traffic vast quantities of narcotics and addict the youth of Iran and the Middle East, openly supply prisoners in the regime’s jails with drugs to break their resistance. Those responsible not only face no punishment but enjoy lives of extreme luxury, while vulnerable individuals such as Showkat Vaisi, driven by extreme poverty and unemployment, are sentenced to death and executed.

Iranian Regime Nuclear Chief: They Tell Us If You Touch Anything, We Will Attack Again
Mohammad Eslami, head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI)—an official appointed by the Iranian regime—again repeated the regime’s accusations against the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). He said Iran remains under pressure and is told that if it takes any action, it will be attacked again. For non-Iranian readers: the AEOI is the regime’s nuclear authority responsible for all nuclear facilities. On Sunday, November 16, at a state-run conference titled “International Law Under Attack, Aggression and Defense,” Eslami said: “We are constantly facing threats. Every day we are threatened that if you take any action, we will attack again.” The United States and Israel have repeatedly emphasized that they will not allow Iran’s regime to acquire a nuclear weapon.
Iran’s Inflation Storm Intensifies as Dairy and Meat Prices Soar and the Rial Plunges
While basic foods become unaffordable and workers lose purchasing power, the regime channels billions into regional militias and missile projects. Iran continues to face a dramatic surge in the price of essential goods, while the value of the national currency declines sharply. This week alone, the country witnessed yet another wave of price hikes in dairy products — one of the last remaining staples on the tables of low-income families. According to domestic reports, the price of a 900-gram bottle of low-fat milk jumped 13.3% in a single day, rising from 37,500 tomans to 42,500 tomans. Full-fat milk increased from 48,000 to 52,000 tomans, while the price of a bucket of whole-fat yogurt climbed from 178,000 to 195,000 tomans in just 24 hours.
