The White House said on August 28 that US forces had established control of the waterway, citing the clearance of Iranian mines, the movement of nearly 1,500 commercial vessels under US protection and the redirection of vessels attempting to breach the US blockade.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"11\"\/>The latest remark comes as the confrontation between Washington and Tehran has intensified. US central command said American forces completed a wave of strikes against Iranian military targets on September 1, including air-defence sites, radar systems, maritime assets, mine-laying capabilities and communications facilities.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/>The United States has also maintained a naval blockade against Iranian ports. CENTCOM said in July that the blockade would target maritime traffic entering and leaving Iranian ports, while US forces would continue supporting vessels not violating the blockade.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/>The Strait of Hormuz has emerged as a central flashpoint in the conflict because of its importance for commercial shipping and energy supplies.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/world\/middle-east\/trump-suggests-renaming-strait-of-hormuz-trump-strait-amid-escalating-us-iran-conflict\/articleshow\/133715604.cms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Trump suggested that the Strait of Hormuz be renamed to &#8216;Trump Strait&#8217;, asserting U.S. dominance over this crucial maritime route.
