Iran has seized a tanker that appears to have been carrying its own oil, highlighting just how tangled its export system has become under sanctions and blockade.
So unauthorized transport of iranian oil? Either the ship was sanctioned by the US in error or a ship that was shady enough to do sanctions-busting for Iran is also shady enough to double cross iran, work for another paymaster, or some such?

I am trying to figure that out, I suspect maybe it offloaded it’s oil to another tanker and then took on UAE oil.
