Media: US blockade cuts Iran’s oil revenue by nearly $5 billion

The Pentagon estimates that Iran has lost nearly $5 billion in oil revenue due to the US naval blockade in the Gulf of Oman, increasing economic pressure on Tehran. This blockade is being used as a key leverage by President Trump in negotiations to end the war with Iran, amid stalled talks. Iran is adapting by rerouting shipments and using older tankers for storage to maintain exports under pressure.
