US Blockade Squeezes Iran
Iran’s total trade declined by about 35% in the six months after the U.S. naval blockade began on April 13, 2026, compared with an anticipated decline of 75%. About 75% of Iran’s trade by weight had passed through the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. In response to the restrictions, Tehran redirected some trade through land crossings with neighboring countries, and the number of trucks crossing into Turkey via the Gürbulak border crossing rose from around 200 to 1,200. But the disruption spread to supply chains: about 3,000 containers bound for Iran remained stranded at Pakistani ports, while Tehran continued to strengthen its overland routes to limit losses and keep goods flowing.
