Trump Deploys Naval Escorts Through Strait of Hormuz, Straining US-Iran Ceasefire

Former President Trump has ordered U.S. naval escorts through the Strait of Hormuz. The move tests a fragile ceasefire with Iran. Iranian forces have conducted missile launches and drone activity near key shipping lanes. U.S. warships now escort commercial vessels under heightened alert.

Diplomatic efforts continue, but aggressive naval patrols raise the risk of a clash. If tensions boil over, the ceasefire could collapse at any moment.
