Tensions have escalated in the Strait of Hormuz after Iran shut the critical oil transit route, citing a US blockade on its ports. Donald Trump dismissed Iran’s move as a failed attempt at intimidation, asserting that the US would not be blackmailed. Iran’s Supreme National Security Council has ruled out reopening the strait for now and proposed imposing fees on passing ships, further raising global economic and security concerns.
