A U.S. vessel has been fired on and steered to the Bandar Abbas port by Iran on Tuesday, according to reports by the Saudi news network, Al Arabiya. Iran's Fars News Agency also reported that an "American trade vessel" had been confiscated.
Senior U.S. Navy officials told NBC News there had not been any confrontation between Iran's Revolutionary Guard and any Navy ships, however.
The cargo ship is reported to have 34 crew members aboard and was steered to the port which is located off the southern coast of Iran, as per Al Arabiya.
It is not clear yet what type of cargo the ship was carrying.
