United States Central Command Centcom announced on Friday that it had severely restricted Iran's military and economic capabilities, noting the destruction of sea parts and weapons production facilities, and the limitation of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard's capabilities to launch ballistic missiles and drones, while intensifying financial and maritime pressure on Tehran.
CENTCOM claimed that Iran's maritime trade had been completely cut off and that the Strait of Hormuz was under Washington's control. The UKMTO announced that ship traffic in the strait had decreased by 70 percent compared to pre-conflict levels and that a cargo ship that was attacked had sunk.
