US Says Iran Blockade Can Last Indefinitely, Hormuz Tensions Rise, Two Tankers Hit

The US says its naval blockade of Iran can continue indefinitely, as the Strait of Hormuz becomes the central pressure point in the war. Two UAE-linked tankers have been attacked, shipping through Hormuz has collapsed, and Iran is moving to formalise restrictions on vessels linked to the United States and Israel.

In this episode of Epic Fury: The US-Iran War Podcast, we examine the escalating battle over the Strait of Hormuz, the US blockade strategy, Iran’s response, and the growing cost to global shipping and energy markets.

We cover:

• Why the Pentagon says the Iran blockade can continue indefinitely
• Trump’s claim that the US has control of the Strait of Hormuz
• Iran’s counterclaim and proposed legislation restricting shipping
• Two ADNOC tankers attacked in the latest escalation
• The collapse in commercial shipping through Hormuz
• Oil spills and the growing environmental cost of the conflict
• Pressure on the USS Abraham Lincoln and US naval forces
• US Patriot and THAAD interceptor stockpiles
• The latest fighting in the Red Sea and Iraq
• Iran’s demands for reopening the Strait of Hormuz
• US inflation, oil prices and Wall Street’s reaction

The central question is becoming harder to ignore: Is the Strait of Hormuz still a temporary bargaining chip — or is the US-Iran blockade becoming a permanent feature of the conflict?

This is Epic Fury: The US-Iran War Podcast, your daily briefing on the US-Iran war, the Strait of Hormuz, oil markets, military developments and the geopolitical consequences of the conflict.
