U.S. Secretary of War: Iran Does Not Control the Strait of Hormuz
U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin emphasized that Iran does not control the Strait of Hormuz, stating that the waters remain open for navigation, except for ships attempting to breach the American-imposed blockade on Iranian ports. U.S. Navy forces conducted inspections aboard vessels in the Gulf of Oman, while three commercial ships trying to break the blockade changed their course, and others were disrupted to ensure compliance. Additionally, the United States carried out airstrikes targeting an airport, a railway station in Bandar Abbas, and two bridges in southern Iran, resulting in the death of two people and injuries to four. These actions coincided with Iran's efforts to manage the situation amid escalating tensions in the region.
