The United States has launched a third round of airstrikes on Iran after the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) reportedly attacked a commercial container ship in the Strait of Hormuz. The latest escalation comes as Iran declares the strategic waterway closed and warns of a “severe response,” raising fears of a wider regional conflict and major disruptions to global oil supplies. In this video, we explain what triggered the new strikes, why the Strait of Hormuz is one of the world’s most critical maritime chokepoints, and how the confrontation could impact energy markets, international shipping, and geopolitical stability.
