HEADLINES
Empty Tankers Loading Oil Amid Blockade
US 21 Ships Complied With Blockade
Iran Claims Hormuz Back Under Strict Control

The time is now 5:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Regional Impacts, five empty Iranian tankers were sighted in Iranian ports loading millions of barrels of oil amid the US blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, with three of the tankers spotted at Kharg Island, the hub where about 90% of Iran's oil is processed and shipped, and the other two at Bandar Mahshahr in the Persian Gulf. Another five tankers, loaded with approximately 9 million barrels of oil, were spotted in the Gulf of Oman earlier this week and are no longer visible in the images. US officials said no Iranian vessels have broken the blockade since it began on Monday, and the US Central Command said 21 ships have complied and returned to Iran after being warned. A guided-missile destroyer, USS Michael Murphy (DDG 112), was shown patrolling the Arabian Sea as US forces enforce the naval blockade. A spokesperson for Iran's Khattam al-Anbiya' Command said the transit through the Strait of Hormuz has returned to its prior state of strict military control, citing repeated US violations and piracy under the blockade.
