None Shall Pass - Trump Begins Naval Blockade to Strangle Iran

Monday, April 13, 2026 14:56

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

In this 13 April 2026 video, host Cash Jordan talks about how Iran is now blockaded by the US military after president trump promised to strike infrastructure deep inside iran if a “deal” were not reached.

As of April 13, 2026, President Donald Trump has officially ordered a U.S. naval blockade aimed at Iranian ports and maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz. This move follows the total collapse of high-stakes peace negotiations in Islamabad, Pakistan, where the U.S. and Iran failed to reach an agreement after 21 hours of marathon talks. U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) specified that the blockade will be enforced “impartially against vessels of all nations entering or departing Iranian ports and coastal areas”. CENTCOM clarified that they will not impede vessels transiting the Strait to or from non-Iranian ports, such as those in the UAE or Iraq. Trump framed the operation as a response to Iran’s “illegal tolls” and nuclear program, warning that any Iranian “fast attack ships” approaching U.S. vessels would be ”immediately eliminated”.

The strategy is intended to “strangle” the Iranian economy by cutting off oil exports, which analysts estimate could cost Tehran approximately $276 million per day. Oil prices surged back above $100 a barrel immediately following the announcement, with Brent crude hitting roughly $102. : The Revolutionary Guards described the blockade as “piracy” and warned that if U.S. warships approach the strait, it will be considered a breach of the current ceasefire.

The U.S. Navy has deployed significant assets, including Carrier Strike Group 3 and 12 (led by the USS Abraham Lincoln and USS Gerald R. Ford) to the region. On Saturday, two U.S. destroyers, the USS Frank E. Petersen and USS Michael Murphy, conducted transits through the strait as part of a mission to clear sea mines.
