President Trump stated on Sunday that the United States has already started taking measures to control the Strait of Hormuz in the context of the war against Iran. In an interview with the Israeli Channel 14, he affirmed that efforts are underway to control this strategic maritime route. Trump also highlighted the close coordination with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu regarding Iran, emphasizing their good relationship. He expressed his belief that Iran truly wants to reach an agreement and questioned who wouldn’t want a deal to avoid decimation. The United States and Israel have been conducting airstrikes against Iran since February 28, resulting in over 1,340 deaths, including former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. In retaliation, Iran has launched drone and missile attacks targeting Israel, Jordan, Iraq, and Gulf countries hosting American military installations, leading to casualties, infrastructure damage, global market disruptions, and aviation disturbances.
