CENTCOM: 136 Vessels Redirected, 9 Disabled Under US Iran Blockade
⚓ BLOCKADE — CENTCOM's numbers reveal a naval operation far larger than reported. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: 136 redirected, 9 disabled, 42 cleared — the asymmetry matters. Only 24% of vessels got through, meaning the blockade is near-total, not selective. Nine disabled ships is a legally significant threshold: that's force used against civilian hulls. With Hormuz governance under negotiation, these figures become a baseline Tehran will demand reversed before any agreement signs.
