The US has made progress in reopening the Strait of Hormuz, but the Iran war is far from over
· KRGV (NBC 5)
The U.S. has made strides in reducing Iran's control over the Strait of Hormuz while crippling its oil exports, which have plummeted from 1.85 million barrels per day to about 255,000. Despite this, the ongoing conflict, initiated by the U.S. and Israel in February, shows no signs of resolution, with low-level fighting continuing. The economic pressure on Iran has not yet incited an uprising, and if cornered, Iran may escalate militarily. Meanwhile, the Houthis in Yemen have intensified attacks on Saudi Arabia, contributing to rising oil prices, which have surpassed $100 per barrel.
