US amphibious task force deployed – blockade against Iran under consideration

The Boxer Amphibious Ready Group, comprising the USS Boxer (LHD-4), USS Portland (LPD-27) and USS Comstock (LSD-45), has left San Diego and is en route to the Middle East

πŸͺ– The task force comprises around 4,500 marines and sailors from the 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit

Meanwhile, according to reports, the US government is considering a blockade or the capture of the Iranian island of Kharg, a key hub for Iranian oil exports

️ The aim of the measure would be to exert pressure on Iran to end the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz

These considerations contrast with recent statements that no attacks would be carried out on Iranian oil and gas facilities, whilst at the same time new measures against the flow of Iranian oil are being discussed
