🦅 @CENTCOM has forced 70 commercial vessels to change course to comply with the blockade of Iran’s Islamist Terror Regime. US forces have also boarded 2 ships and forcibly disabled 3 to enforce the blockade.
Assessment
CENTCOM is actively enforcing a naval blockade against Iran, redirecting 70 commercial vessels and boarding two ships. Three more were forcibly disabled. This is a significant escalation in maritime pressure, not a passive sanction. The scale of vessel interdiction suggests a sustained operation, not a one-off incident. Watch for Iranian retaliation in the Strait of Hormuz or proxy attacks on shipping.
