He warned Friday that Kharg\u2019s oil facilities could be targeted next if Iran keeps blocking the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/middle-east\/iran-unleashes-oil-shock-blunt-us-firepower-2026-03-13\/\">Reuters<\/a>, United Nations data shows traffic through the waterway has fallen by 97% since the war against Iran began on Feb. 28.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reuters also reported, citing regional sources, that Iran\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) had long prepared for a direct confrontation with Israel and the United States and activated its plan after Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed on the first day of the war. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the report, Iranian planners recognized they could not match superior military forces directly and instead aimed to squeeze oil flows and carry out asymmetric attacks on U.S. assets across the region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Trump said countries that rely on oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz should send warships alongside the United States to help keep the vital waterway open, as traffic through the strait remains heavily disrupted during the conflict with Iran.
