বাংলাUS Blockade Iran Ports has officially commenced as of Monday (April 13, 2026), at 5:30 PM local time. The US Central Command (CENTCOM) confirmed that military forces have moved to intercept any vessel flying any national flag that attempts to enter or exit Iranian docks in the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea east of the Strait of Hormuz.
Escalation: US Blockade Iran Ports and Regional Security
Following the formal start of the US Blockade Iran Ports, CENTCOM issued a stern warning via X (formerly Twitter). They stated that any unauthorized vessel entering the restricted zone would be subject to interception, redirection, or seizure. However, the blockade is specifically targeted at Iranian territory and does not apply to ships heading to other neighboring Gulf nations, ensuring some level of regional maritime traffic remains open.
In response to the US Blockade Iran Ports, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) labeled the move as “maritime piracy.” An IRGC spokesperson threatened that if Iranian ports are not secure, no other ports in the Persian Gulf will be safe. As 20% of the world’s energy supply flows through the Strait of Hormuz, this naval confrontation poses a severe threat to global fuel prices and international shipping security.
