U.S. Military Establishes Safe Travel Lanes Through Strait Of Hormuz

from The Fox News Rundown · host FOX News Podcasts

The U.S. Military is defending commercial ships traveling through the Strait of Hormuz under the name 'Project Freedom.' CENTCOM Commander Admiral Brad Cooper told reporters this week that several U.S. flagged commercial vessels have already traversed the waterway. With U.S. Apache and Seahawk helicopters having to sink six IRGC small boats that were targeting commercial ships in the Strait, what is the actually state of the ceasefire? FOX’s John Saucier speaks with Brent Sadler, Senior Research Fellow with the Heritage Foundation, Naval Warfare and Advanced Technology, Allison Center for National Security, who says despite obstacles like water mines and 'mosquito boats', the combined U.S. forces active in the Strait have taken control of it.
