Read, Watch or Listen
Washington, D.C.—The United States announced Tuesday that its Navy will immediately begin blockading the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global oil transit route, following unsuccessful peace negotiations with Iran in Islamabad. President Donald Trump ordered U.S. forces to stop ships entering or leaving the strait and intercept vessels paying tolls to Iran. The move escalates tensions as roughly 20% of the world’s oil passes through the strait. Iran has warned that any foreign military action could provoke a response. The blockade begins amid heightened military activity. Based on 5 articles reviewed and supporting research.
