US to Enforce Naval Blockade of Iranian Ports, Keeps Hormuz Strait Open for Other Ships
CENTCOM has announced a naval blockade of all vessels entering or leaving Iranian ports in the Arabian Gulf and Gulf of Oman. The operation begins at 10 a.m. Eastern on April 13 (1500 GMT). The statement clarifies that ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz to and from non-Iranian ports will not be affected. This differs from earlier comments on social media about pursuing vessels that paid Iranian tolls.
