Every country ship that passes through strait give something to iran in return one way or another.
But I don't think it's matter bcz it's unlikely that any of China, india, Russia and Pakistan ships which are termed friendly by iran will be stopped by USA.

Ship heading to China was turned around about 40 minutes ago or so by Naval blockade.

Literally Iran has been saying that some ships are paying 2 million USD to transit the strait and only allow ships that pay the toll. Iran have said that Iran have the right to charge ships passing through for security reasons.

I mean, you can't actually trust a single word Iran days so I'm not sure what they have said is relevant

It’s an extra charge to have Iran to say this about your ship btw
(Just kidding, I think)

Do I believe India paid - Yes.
Does that matter if India and Iran say otherwise? - no.
Once again Iran has outplayed the US/Israel alliance in terms of messaging. Detaining ships that have paid the toll has been one of the main points they've been trying to hammer.
How are they going to prove it?

Detaining foreign owned and operated ships from trading partners and allies won’t help their cause either. Just piss the world off further.

Either charge tolls or don't. So much flip flopping.

No lol, Iran cannot be allowed to charge tolls for waterways it does not own, Piracy is not acceptable regardless of if it's the US or Iran doing it

The flip flopping kind of shows you that Iran's in a pickle - they need to keep exporting oil.
