Woofun AI reports that US President Donald Trump announced the immediate reinstatement of the "Blockade Iran" operation, which restricts Iranian vessels and customers from entering or exiting the region. He stated that the Strait of Hormuz remains open for all other nations, positioning the US as the "Guardian of the Strait of Hormuz."

To offset security costs in the volatile region, the US will impose a 20% fee on all cargo shipments transiting the strait. Relevant procedures and organizational work for this initiative are set to commence immediately.
