Wednesday briefing: How Trump’s attempt to reopen the Strait of Hormuz brought war closer again
Donald Trump launched 'Project Freedom' to escort thousands of stranded sailors and vessels through the Strait of Hormuz under US military protection, a move Iran viewed as a provocation to its blockade, straining the fragile US-Iran ceasefire. The initiative was temporarily paused to pursue a potential agreement with Iran, though uncertainty remains over its reinstatement, with observers warning that ongoing tensions could reignite full-scale war.
