US Ends Latest Strikes On Iran After 90 Targets Hit In Hormuz Push
US Central Command said its latest wave of strikes on Iran is over. The move came after a five hour op that hit about 90 sites tied to Hormuz ship lane threats. CENTCOM also noted a prior 90 minute round at 7:30 am DC time.
Where did US hit? List is long: Bandar Abbas, Bushehr, Chah Bahar, Jask, Konarak, Abu Musa, Khormuj, Ahvaz, Qeshm, Tunb, Kuh-e Stak and Sirik. Black and white clips showed runway gouges and launcher burns. One aim was to curb Iran push on tankers and box ships.
A side row erupted on July 14. Iran press said US hit a wheat silo in Hoveyzeh. CENTCOM said false. Truth was a hit on mil sites in Bandar Abbas, Khormuj, Ahvaz, Qeshm, Tunb, Bushehr and Kuh-e Stak to cut Iran ship hit power. Iran, for its part, hit US bases in Gulf lands and cut Hormuz flow for days.
Why this round? Truce broke on July 8. US and Iran had a short cease pact from June 28, but new ship hits in Hormuz broke it. US hit back for three days in a row, July 11, 12, 13, then a new wave July 14, 15. On July 10, President Trump told Congress that clash resumed July 7, opening a 60 day use of force window. He said action was to guard US folk and US goals in area. On July 15, US even reimposed a sea block on Iran ports.
Why halt now? Five drivers:
1. Cost high, risk of wide clash up. 2. Gulf peers pressed for calm. 3. Oil jump risk. 4. US wants Hormuz lanes open, not closed. 5. Back lane talks hint.
Iran reply was mixed. Public line hard, with vows and claims of hits on US bases. Private line more soft, with release of a US-Iran dual holder, Dena Karari, held since 2024. Trump praised it as good will.
Market pulse: Oil eased a bit after halt word, yet stays bid on Hormuz fear. Tanker rates stayed high. Gold eased. Stocks saw relief. For crypto, mood lifted. BTC held firm above key, ETH held, SOL and large alts saw buy flow. Fear gauge eased. Stable flow rose. On Gate, spot vol up, perp funding flat, ETF inflow firm.
What to watch next:
• Hormuz flow data and tanker track. • Any US-Iran talk sign. • CENTCOM briefs and oil block steps. • Iran base hit claims vs US reply. • Oil, DXY, US yields.
Trade view for Gate crew: Keep core spot, avoid high lever, use stop loss, use grid for chop, keep cash for dip, use Earn for idle USD. Do not chase FOMO spikes. Risk stays high, calm is frail.
Bottom line: US says job done for now, 90 sites hit, aim met. But Hormuz game stays live.
