The US military will blockade Iranian ports and coastal areas starting April 13. This comes after weekend talks in Islamabad failed to reach a deal to end the war with Iran. The US Central Command said the blockade will be enforced impartially against all vessels. President Trump stated that US forces will intercept vessels that have paid a toll to Iran. The US Navy will also destroy mines in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards warned that military vessels approaching the strait will be dealt with harshly. The blockade may escalate the conflict and affect global energy supplies.
