Reports circulating on social media claim Iran has seized a second US ROV, an unmanned underwater vehicle described as American military equipment. Little verified detail has emerged beyond the claim itself, which was shared with hashtags in both French and English. If confirmed, it would add to earlier incidents involving US maritime drones in the Gulf region and could heighten already strained tensions between Washington and Tehran.
Why now: Claims of Iran capturing US military hardware touch a nerve amid ongoing US-Iran tensions in the Gulf.
