US President Donald Trump has announced a 20% charge on all cargo passing through the Strait of Hormuz while declaring the waterway will remain open. The US has also resumed a maritime blockade targeting Iranian ports, with CENTCOM confirming enforcement from July 14. Iran has strongly rejected Trump’s claims, insisting it—not the US—has always been the true guardian of the Strait of Hormuz. The move marks a sharp escalation in the ongoing US-Iran confrontation.
