Tanker War Increases US-Iran Tensions
The article discusses the escalation of the confrontation between the United States and Iran through the "tanker war" in the Strait of Hormuz, amidst ongoing attacks and military tensions, despite six months of diplomatic stalemate. Reports indicate that Washington is increasing its efforts to blockade Iran's oil exports, launching bombing operations, issuing warnings, and intensifying inspections of commercial ships, which has led to rerouting 92 vessels so far. In response, Iran has stated that it will retaliate swiftly and decisively against any aggression, noting that the rules of the game in the war have changed. Threats of larger military operations and increased pressure on the Iranian economy are rising. Experts suggest that the conflict could continue for another six months and may potentially evolve into a prolonged war in the region.
