US CENTCOM Intensifies Maritime Blockade Against Iran Amid Escalating Tensions

U.S. Central Command forces in the Arabian Sea have redirected nearly 100 commercial vessels and boarded multiple ships to enforce a maritime blockade against Iran. This action comes as Iran's Supreme National Security Council Secretary Mohsen Rezaei warned of a 'recalibrated' military posture and threatened to establish a maritime exclusion zone in the Persian Gulf.
