Sanctions, yes. That doesn't help the hostages, though.

The UN Security Council has agreed a statement voicing "grave concern" at Iran's capture of 15 British sailors.
It also calls on Tehran to allow the UK consular access to the personnel.
The statement is a watered-down version as the UK wanted it to "deplore" Iran's detention of the Britons and call for their immediate release...
The UK failed to win support for a stronger statement deploring Iran's actions, following opposition led by Russia.
Brave stand by the UN...
In other news, I like how Newt Gingrich thinks...
I think there are two very simple steps that should be taken. The first is to use a covert operation or a special forces operation to knock out the only gasoline producing refinery in Iran. There’s only one. And the second is to simply intercede by naval force, and block any tankers from bringing gasoline to Iran… I would right now say to them privately, within the next week, your refinery will no longer work. And within the following week, there will be no tankers arriving. Now if you would like to avoid being humiliated publicly, we recommend you calmly and quietly give them back now. But frankly, if you’d prefer to show the planet that you’re tiny and we’re not, we’re prepared to simply cut off your economy, and allow you to go back to walking and using oxen to pull carts, because you will have no gasoline left.

I always thought that the oil infrastructure was seen as off limits, even in a large scale shooting war. See, e.g., the response to Hussein's torching of Kuwait's wells in GW I.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

And what about the hostages?Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

Anyone can feel free to jump in an answer about the 15.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
