U.S. Military Prepares For Boarding Operations On Iranian Ships

U.S. Military Prepares For Boarding Operations On Iranian Ships

Because of Iran's refusal to open the Strait of Hormuz.

The United States is considering expanding its naval operation against Iran beyond the Middle East. In particular, they are talking about plans to land the US military on oil tankers linked to Tehran in international waters. This is reported by The Wall Street Journal with reference to sources among American officials.

According to the publication, preparations for such actions are being made against the backdrop of Iran's refusal to open the Strait of Hormuz for free navigation.

It is noted that tensions escalated after the Iranian military attacked several merchant ships and declared "strict control" over the strait. The statements have raised concerns among international shipping companies.

At the same time, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi earlier claimed that the Strait of Hormuz remains open to commercial vessels, adding to the uncertainty surrounding the situation.
