Well what did you expect ?
UK impounds one of theirs , they impound one of ours . It matters not a hoot to these zealots and islamic agitators whether the vessel is /was ,or could have been in International waters ,they don't GAF.
Frankly ,I hope Israel nukes the scum.
There , I said it ......

Looks like the "second" tanker might be a Liberian-flagged tanker, the MESDAR. News still sketchy.
