IRGC's Control of Strait of Hormuz Amid Rising Tensions

IRGC's Control of Strait of Hormuz Amid Rising Tensions

Just read about the IRGC stating they have 'complete control' over the Strait of Hormuz, where 1/5 of global oil passes. Despite Trump's threat of US Navy escorts, the strait remains effectively closed due to the US-Israeli war on Iran, disrupting shipping and spiking oil prices above $82/barrel. Pakistan is now seeking alternative oil routes via Saudi Arabia's Red Sea port. The situation shows how regional tensions directly impact global energy supplies. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/3/4/irgc-says-iran-in-complete-control-of-strait-of-hormuz-amid-trump-threats

That's a serious chokehold on global oil. Makes sense that everyone's scrambling for alternatives now.
