Iran Responds to Trump's "Project Freedom" With Escalation and Attacks

Iran responded to Trump's 'Freedom Project' by attacking U.S. vessels, foreign-flagged ships, and an onshore oil terminal in the Strait of Hormuz. This escalation includes expanding its claimed control zone to include waters off Fujairah, potentially disrupting UAE oil exports. The U.S. is attempting to secure passage through the Strait, but Iranian attacks indicate a heightened risk.
