US Central Command said Monday its forces would resume blockading maritime traffic entering and exiting Iranian ports at 4 p.m. ET on July 14, acting at President Donald Trump’s direction, APA reports.
“CENTCOM forces will enforce the blockade against vessels transiting to or from Iranian ports and coastal areas,” CENTCOM said in a statement posted on X.
CENTCOM said it would continue supporting vessels in regional waters that were not violating the blockade.
It advised mariners operating in the Gulf of Oman and near the approaches to the Strait of Hormuz to monitor navigational warnings.
