Since then, tensions have escalated sharply across the Strait of Hormuz and wider Persian Gulf region, with near-total disruption of oil shipments and repeated naval confrontations. In the latest developments, US President Donald Trump ordered military action against Iranian small boats and intensified mine-clearing operations in the Strait, further raising fears of escalation. The US also seized another tanker linked to Iranian oil smuggling, while Iran reportedly captured two cargo ships in response, deepening maritime chaos in the region. Diplomatic efforts remain fragile, with Trump announcing a temporary extension of a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah after White House talks, even as hostilities continue. Meanwhile, Iran maintains that its leadership is united despite US claims of internal divisions.
