Malbec-Legacy Ship Details and Seafarer Feedback

In the early hours of July 5, 2023, an Iranian Combattante II fast-attack craft made a provocative move towards the tanker 'TRF Moss' in the Gulf of Oman. The incident unfolded at approximately 1 a.m. local time when the Iranian vessel attempted to approach the tanker, which was navigating southeast. However, the situation escalated quickly when the USS 'McFaul', a U.S. Navy destroyer, arrived on the scene, accompanied by a remotely piloted MQ-9 Reaper and a P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft. The presence of the U.S. forces led the Iranian vessel to disengage and retreat, ensuring the safety of the 'TRF Moss' during this tense encounter.
