YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Strait of Hormuz is still closed in any meaningful sense. Iran has reasserted military control over the waterway, ships are turning around instead of crossing, and at least some vessels are reportedly coming under direct fire rather than just facing vague threats or mine warnings. So the bottom line is that Trump either lied about the situation, misunderstood it, or was bluffing without control over events, because the reality is that commercial shipping is still being blocked and the strait is not functioning as open normal transit.
