This is getting more and more embarrasing by the hour. Look what Iran´s embassy in Ghana just posted. Assuming it´s an authentic account. But it´s reported as such in the mainstream media, so it´s embarrasing for the US anyway.
>>>BREAKING: "Rich Starry," a Chinese oil tanker sanctioned for shipping Iranian oil, flying the flag of Malawi — a country with no coastline — just sailed through America's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. The Navy, with its many "big beautiful ships," issued repeated warnings. Reportedly, the tanker's captain upgraded to premium to skip the ads.
>>>EDIT: We're being told the blockade only applies to countries the US isn't afraid of. That list used to be long. It now fits on Trump's McDonald's receipt, delivered by DoorDash.
The story itself seems to be true. There actually is a ship named Rich Starry registered in Malawi shipping oil products from the UAE to China. The ship is currently in the Hormuz Strait according to a tracker website. While not shipping Iranian oil this time, Rich Starry is already under US sanctions due to suspected connections with the Iranian oil trade.
