Following Iran's decision to close the Strait of Hormuz, U.S. President Donald Trump made a move. Trump announced that they would protect the ships in the strait, stating, "I have instructed to provide political risk insurance and financial security guarantees for all maritime trade passing through the Gulf. The U.S. Navy will begin escorting tankers passing through the Strait of Hormuz as soon as necessary."

The attacks launched by the US and Israel on Iran on February 28 turned the world upside down. Iran's response to the US and Israel, which carried out attacks on many Iranian cities, especially Tehran, was harsh.

Iran, which launched attacks on Israel and US bases in the region, effectively blocked oil trade by closing the Strait of Hormuz.
