Trump blasts ‘dishonorable’ Iran over its handling of Strait of Hormuz: ‘Not the agreement we have’ President Trump lashed out at Iran’s handling of the Strait of Hormuz since the two-week cease-fire came into force – claiming “That is not the agreement we…
Why it matters
The vital waterway, through which 20% of the world’s oil passes daily, has effectively been closed since the US and Israel launched their first attacks on Iran as part of “Operation Epic Fury” on Feb.
Common ground
Only nine ships passed through the Strait over the last 24 hours, according to data from the Hormuz Strait Monitor – way down on the daily average of 60 vessels.
