Trump declares Strait of Hormuz permanently open

Donald Trump has declared the Strait of Hormuz permanently open as the Pentagon deploys over 10,000 U.S. troops to the region. The U.S. has announced a formal blockade of Iranian ports in response to threats of closure, with the Navy ready to force compliance. Former Navy SEAL Jonathan Gilliam discusses the potential for ships to resume passage through the strait, though concerns remain about Iranian forces and proxy groups like the Houthis and Hezbollah.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
