US Central Command Claims Readiness to Aid Commercial Vessels Transiting Strait of Hormuz

According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, CENTCOM has declared its preparedness to assist commercial vessels intending to transit the Strait of Hormuz. The US military command stated its forces are vigilant and ready for assigned missions, offering support to ships traversing the strategic passage.

CENTCOM further claimed that its forces have provided assistance to more than a thousand ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz since the beginning of May. These assertions come in the context of disruptions impacting maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, which have been attributed to the actions of the United States and the Israeli regime. The disturbance in this critical maritime route has reportedly affected global supply chains for fuel, energy, petrochemical products, and chemical fertilizers.

Iran has previously stated its readiness to ensure shipping security in the Strait of Hormuz, contingent upon a stable ceasefire and the conclusion of the ongoing conflict, adhering to necessary security protocols and considerations.
