Iran lacks control over Strait of Hormuz
The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) confirmed that Iran's claims of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps controlling the Strait of Hormuz are false. It emphasized that commercial shipping continues to pass through the international waterway despite Iranian threats and attacks. CENTCOM clarified that thousands of ships have transited the strait since May, and oil supplies are still flowing; over a billion barrels of oil have passed through in recent months, indicating Iran's lack of full control. Conversely, Iran claimed that its naval forces control the western parts of the strait and the Gulf of Oman, amid escalating security tensions over navigation in this vital strait, which is one of the most important maritime routes for transporting oil and trade between the Gulf and the world.
