President Donald Trump has ordered the US Navy to take action against Iranian vessels that are attempting to obstruct trade through the Strait of Hormuz. This move is seen as a significant setback to the recently extended cease-fire between Washington and Tehran. The announcement comes after the War Department confirmed the seizure of a sanctioned tanker transporting Iranian oil.
