U.S. Central Command Says No Vessels Have Breached Blockade

2 weeks ago
Iran’s top military leaders are threatening to halt trade across the Gulf region if the United States does not lift its blockade of Iranian ports.

U.S. Central Command says no vessels have breached the blockade in its first 48 hours, underscoring the scope of the military operation.

President Donald Trump said the war is “very close to over” and claimed China has agreed not to supply weapons to Iran, signaling possible diplomatic movement despite ongoing tensions.

At the same time, U.S. officials are warning that new sanctions could target financial institutions that continue doing business with Iran.

Diplomatic efforts remain underway, with mediators working to extend a fragile ceasefire and prevent further escalation in the region.
