The US military will blockade Iranian ports after weekend talks failed to reach a deal. The talks in Islamabad were the first direct US-Iranian meeting in over a decade. The US Central Command said the blockade would start at 10am ET and be enforced against all vessels entering or departing Iranian ports. Vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz to and from non-Iranian ports will not be impeded. The US Navy will also destroy mines dropped by Iran in the Strait of Hormuz.
