The Chairman of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Ali Shamkhani, and other officials have accused U.S. President Donald Trump of engaging in smuggling activities in the Strait of Hormuz. They claim that Trump has hired pirates and criminals operating in Omani waters to transport oil using small boats, which are then transferred to larger tankers. Iranian forces have been targeting these smuggling operations, intercepting around 5-6 boats each night.
