I know close to nothing of the subject, but it is my understanding that you have to approach the ship. If a ship is heading from Iran to China, I think it's going to move east, and not south, so at the very least, anyone trying to pirate it (interdict is to pirate as kinetic action is to war, right) will have to approach the Iranian coast.
You know you don't have to approach the coast to interdict ships, right?

The Iranians don't need to approach ships. Lol. They're threatening to blow them up. We can do the same.
Lol? Just blow up a Chinese ship?
