Captain of stranded ship in Strait of Hormuz tells BBC of 'pressure'

The captain of a ship stranded in the Strait of Hormuz has told the BBC what it is like to be caught up in the power struggle between the US and Iran for the strategically important Strait of Hormuz.

Captain Raman Kapoor says he and his crew contend with “mental not material pressure” as their stranded vessel is assailed by “hundreds” of missiles and the sound of explosions.
