The U.S. military will disclose shortly the specific start time for “locking down Iran.”

BlockBeats message, July 13, according to AXIOS, Trump announced on Monday that the U.S. is restarting a maritime blockade of Iran and will prevent any ships from entering or leaving Iranian ports. He also claimed that the U.S. will charge a “20% fee” for ensuring the safe passage of merchant vessels, but the details and seriousness of the proposal remain unclear.

As required by law to provide shipowners with 24 hours’ advance notice, the newly restarted maritime blockade has not yet taken effect. A U.S. official said that U.S. Central Command will release the specific timing later on Monday evening.
