The HillLO·IR · US·2 days ago
CENTCOM reports that US naval forces have redirected 100 commercial vessels linked to Iran since resuming a maritime blockade 60 days ago. The scale suggests a significant escalation in US pressure on Iranian trade, though details on vessel types and destinations remain unclear. This marks a notable intensification of economic warfare, potentially impacting global shipping and oil markets.
