US Army Reports Ships Altering Course in Iran Blockade
The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) announced that 105 commercial ships have changed course as of September 18 to ensure compliance with the maritime blockade imposed on Iran, as part of its efforts to pressure Tehran ahead of rising tensions in the region. The United States affirms that the blockade aims to exert control over Iran's maritime activities, while Iran claims that the Strait of Hormuz is now fully under the control of the Revolutionary Guards Navy, which considers it a source of pride for the Iranian people. Iran warns that suspending oil exports from Iran would mean a halt to exports from the entire region.
