Sinctom marks 100 years of besieged ships and Guard challenges US
Tensions between the United States and Iran are escalating over control of the Strait of Hormuz, as U.S. Central Command ( CENTCOM) announced the redeployment of 100 commercial ships over the next 60 days and enforcement of strict measures on navigation related to Iran, indicating that ships will not pass through the Iranian blockade without prior authorization from U.S. forces. In response, Iran's Revolutionary Guards dismissed Washington’s claims of controlling the strait, calling for a test of the U.S. military's ability to impose control, and warned of a decisive response to any American vessels approaching. The Iranian president affirmed that his country will resist American pressures and will not allow its people to be intimidated, amid growing concerns of a possible military escalation that could impact global oil movement and energy market stability.
