U.S. Navy Blocks 13 Ships from Iranian Ports in Persian Gulf and Gulf of Oman
The U.S. Navy has turned back 13 ships since implementing a blockade of Iranian ports in the Persian Gulf and Gulf of Oman, according to the Pentagon. The move follows failed U.S.-Iran peace talks and President Trump's demand that Iran reopen the Strait of Hormuz. The blockade is not targeting the strait itself but Iranian ports and coastline.
