U.S. authorities filed a civil forfeiture complaint in D.C. seeking to seize the crude oil tanker Skipper and about 1.8 million barrels of oil linked to PdVSA, alleging the shipments funded the IRGC and its Qods Force and helped finance foreign terrorist activities.

The case underscores efforts to disrupt sanctions evasion and terrorist financing networks.
