CENTCOM Disputes Iran's Hormuz Closure Claim as Transits Sit at 10% of Normal

That's not open; that's a controlled chokepoint. Iran frames 10% as closure; Washington frames it as open. Both are managing perception. For energy markets, the variable that shifts next is who owns the narrative heading into any Hormuz deal.
