United States forces intercepted a vessel several hundred kilometers off Sri Lanka's coast, seizing a shipment reportedly destined for Iranian companies involved in missile development. The operation is part of a wider effort to prevent Iran from rebuilding its arsenal after recent strikes by Israel and the United States. The confiscated cargo included both conventional weapon components and dual-use materials, which can be utilized for civilian or military purposes. The seized items were subsequently destroyed, according to sources familiar with the mission.
