President Trump announced that the United States, several other countries, will send war ships to reopen commercial shipping in the strait of Hormuz. This follows Iran's attempted closure of the Hormov Strait, which brought commercial shipping to and from the Gulf to a complete halt and disrupted oil exports from the region and global energy markets.
