Iran has stepped up its strikes in the Strait of Hormuz to regain its deterrence leverage and raise the cost of any war for its adversaries, targeting ships and oil facilities with low-cost means. Military analyst Elias Hanna said there had been 38 attacks during the month, with strikes reaching to within 55 kilometers of Al-Faw Island and as far as Jubail. Meanwhile, the cost of insuring a barrel of oil has risen from $6 before the war to $33 today. Hanna said US President Donald Trump’s options are to escalate, negotiate, or wait. He may opt for a brief, intensive bombing campaign against energy facilities and Iran’s command-and-control system to weaken the country, then scale back the costly naval force blockading it.
