What happened

Well supportedReported by 14 independent outlets

The US asserted operational control over the key waterway in Hormuz, implementing a blockade amid escalating tensions with Iran. President Donald Trump stated that the US controlled the Strait of Hormuz and had successfully prevented Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, describing the situation as an intermittent military conflict. Concurrently, Brigadier General Hossein Mohebbi stated that the IRGC Navy's seizure of a US unmanned submarine demonstrated Iran’s authority over the strategic waterway, warning that vessels entering without complying with Iran’s control would be unable to pass.
