Trump says the US Navy will begin blockading ships in the Strait of Hormuz

# President Donald Trump says the US Navy will start preventing ships from passing through the Strait of Hormuz, and interdict every vessel in international waters that had paid a toll to Iran. This comes after the US-Iran talks in Pakistan over the weekend failed to agree on a long-term peace deal. One-fifth of the world’s oil typically passes through the Strait. In a lengthy post on Truth Social, Trump warned that any Iranian who fires at the US Navy or at peaceful vessels will be “blown to hell”.
