The U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is largely succeeding in choking off Iran’s oil lifeline. According to JINSA, 62 vessels attempted to bypass the blockade, and 4 were disabled. Iran is struggling to transport its oil, with limited storage options due to the blockade. UANI reported one Iranian vessel evaded the blockade and headed to China, but JINSA couldn't verify this claim.
