US and Bahrain push UN-backed action for Hormuz as Washington seeks maritime coalition

The United States and Bahrain are pushing for UN-backed action to secure the safety of the Strait of Hormuz. This includes a draft UN resolution that could lead to sanctions against Iran and potentially authorize force if Tehran fails to halt attacks. The U.S. is also seeking to establish a multinational maritime coalition to ensure safe transit through the waterway once conditions stabilize.
