Iran warns US Navy to stay clear of Strait of Hormuz

The Iranian navy prevented enemy warships from entering the Strait of Hormuz by issuing a warning, while US President Trump initiated efforts to free stranded ships as a humanitarian gesture. Iranian forces warned the US Navy to stay out of the strait, and the UK Maritime Trade Operations agency reported a tanker was hit by projectiles in the strait. Iran has blocked nearly all shipping from the Gulf for over two months, driving up energy prices.
