US military says 100 ships redirected in past 2 months of Iran blockade

The United States military has redirected 100 commercial vessels over the past two months as part of an ongoing blockade targeting Iranian ports. These operations are concentrated in the Strait of Hormuz, a critical maritime chokepoint for global shipping.

Under this initiative, the U.S. military is enforcing a policy requiring authorization for vessels to pass through the Strait. The redirected ships were prevented from proceeding to Iranian ports as part of the broader effort to monitor and control maritime traffic in the region.
