The British-Iranian Confrontation of 2019: The Tanker War

In 2019, British and Iranian Naval forces became locked in a two-month long confrontation in the Persian Gulf. Tensions escalated after the Government of Gibraltar seized an Iranian-owned tanker called the MV Grace 1, which was accused of breaching international sanctions. In retaliation, the Iranians began mounting attempts to capture a British tanker in the Gulf, which forced Royal Navy warships to deploy onto the 'front-line' to protect British merchant vessels from the Iranian threat.
