Random thoughts:

Are there only British (UK) ships in that area, or are EU ones also present?

Is the British tanker seized crewed by a solely British crew, or a crew of mixed nationalities?

As the Iranian tanker that initiated this situation was 'stopped' due to suspected breaking of an EU embargo, have there been any comments/actions on these developments by the EU themselves?

How long before we start seeing Iranian TV using videos of the captured crew to escalate the 'feeding frenzy'?
