I have just been informed that we have destroyed and sunk 9 Iranian Naval Ships, some of them relatively large and important. We are going after the rest — They will soon be floating at the bottom of the sea, also! In a different attack, we largely destroyed their Naval Headquarters. Other than that, their Navy is doing very well! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP
This is an attack on the ability of Iran to close the Strait of Hormuz.
Why it matters: The U.S. strikes target Iran’s ability to close the strategic Strait of Hormuz, the narrow waterway through which roughly a fifth of the world’s oil supply flows.
…
Driving the news: On Saturday, Iranian naval ships broadcast messages on an emergency radio channel warning commercial ships the Strait of Hormuz was closed.
Over the past 24 hours, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has claimed responsibility for attacks on commercial ships and tankers.
Commercial shipping around the strait has been disrupted with many ships anchored at sea, according to open-source ship tracking data. But a U.S. defense official said some ships are still flowing through the strait.
Peace through strength!
