Washington: (RightNow) US President Donald Trump announces that US forces have gained full control over the Strait of Hormuz. He further states that the situation with Iran is moving in a positive direction.

President Trump clarifies that Iran might take action in the Strait of Hormuz. He warns that any action will be met with a strong response. Trump asserts that the US is in a very strong position.

According to Arab media, Trump’s statement follows a recent claim by Iranian Revolutionary Guard spokesperson Brigadier General Hossein Mohbi. General Mohbi stated that there are no longer any US naval ships in the Persian Gulf.

It is noteworthy that the US military fired two Hellfire missiles to stop a Panama-flagged cargo ship. US officials report that the ship ignored multiple warnings.

Remember, the Strait of Hormuz is a crucial route for global trade, and control over it can impact the balance of power in the region.
