The US military has redirected 51 commercial vessels as part of operations supporting the US blockade of Iranian ports, according to CENTCOM. Two vessels were disabled and two others were boarded to ensure compliance with blockade procedures. Additionally, the US State Department has taken measures against digital asset trading platforms and networks of companies it claims are linked to money laundering operations on behalf of the Iranian regime and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
These actions are part of Washington's broader campaign to cut off funding sources used by Tehran to circumvent sanctions.
