US Turns to Iran's Border
The Trump administration plans to extend pressure on Iran from the sea to its land borders through a new U.S. task force called “Iron Gate.” Based in Tampa, the 20-member unit will be overseen by U.S. Central Command. It will coordinate with U.S. intelligence agencies and countries in the region to track and disrupt routes used to transport illicit goods, and to prevent the smuggling of weapons, prohibited technology and sanctioned materials. Limited operations to seize components—or target them militarily—may also be carried out. But the plan’s success depends on cooperation from Iran’s neighbors, whose commercial ties with Tehran, along with Iran’s extensive borders and smuggling networks, could make it harder to implement.
