The U.S. Central Command stated that "48 vessels have been required to alter their course over the past 20 days to ensure compliance with blockade measures." The updated total, which is four more than the previously reported 44 vessels, reflects ongoing enforcement. Since April 13, the United States has imposed a maritime blockade on Iran in response to Iran's restrictions on shipping through the Strait of Hormuz following a U.S.-Israel military strike on February 28.

The Iranian military said that a war between Iran and the U.S. and Israel "is highly likely" to reignite, adding that it is "fully prepared to respond to any new American provocations or foolish actions."
