A day after the US blockade targeting Iranian ports, questions are mounting over its effectiveness. While Washington claims no ships breached restrictions in the first 24 hours, independent tracking data suggests some vessels are still passing through the Strait of Hormuz. The move, ordered by President Donald Trump after talks with Iran collapsed, aims to choke Tehran’s oil exports and revenue. Despite enforcement efforts backed by warships and aircraft, over 20 ships reportedly transited the strait in a day. With traffic sharply down but not halted, the blockade’s real impact remains under scrutiny.
