Report: Iran Uses Fishing Boats as Spy Network to Target Ships in Strait of Hormuz According to open-source intelligence reports, Iran has established a surveillance network using local fishermen and small commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. The boats allegedly report ship movements directly to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and help assess the results of attacks. The reported network could allow Iran to track maritime traffic without relying entirely on radar systems, some of which have been destroyed in U.S. strikes.
