The US has blacklisted the VLCC Adrian Darya 1 and its captain for “providing support to terrorism or acts of terrorism”.
The US Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) said it took action against the vessel as it was “ultimately benefitting Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Qods Force (IRGC-QF)”
The US treasury said the vessel was “blocked property” under an anti-terrorist order.
