A US blockade of Iran’s ports is in place with President Donald Trump warning that any vessels approaching the blockade of Iranian shipping would be “immediately eliminated.”
“Warning: If any of these ships come anywhere close to our BLOCKADE, they will be immediately ELIMINATED… It is quick and brutal,” Trump wrote on social media, referring to Iranian naval vessels.
The US military on Monday began enforcing a blockade of Iranian ports, targeting maritime traffic linked to Tehran after weeks of war involving the United States, Israel, and Iran.
Since the conflict in the Middle East began on Feb. 28, Iran has effectively restricted access to the Strait of Hormuz, allowing passage only under its control and subject to fees. The narrow corridor previously carried nearly 20% of global oil and gas flows.
