Operation "Freedom", US and Iran exchange fire in Hormuz...

Clashes in the Strait of Hormuz are taking on a new military dimension, as the United States has intervened directly to guarantee freedom of navigation in this strategic corridor.

US Central Command announced that its forces destroyed six small Iranian boats and intercepted cruise missiles and drones launched by Iran. 

Admiral Brad Cooper stated that about 15,000 US military personnel are involved in the "Project Freedom" operation, launched by the Trump administration with the aim of restoring freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.

He stated that the main goal is to maintain security in one of the most important sea routes in the world, while warning Iranian forces to stay away from American military assets to avoid a direct escalation.

At the same time, he confirmed that the US blockade on Iran remains in force, restricting maritime entry and exit to Iranian territory. According to him, this measure is proving more effective than initially anticipated.

According to Cooper, the missile and drone attacks were carried out by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which, according to him, is trying to hinder the American mission to unblock this strategic sea route.

The US general also warned Iranian forces, “strongly advising” them to stay away from US military assets. He added that the US naval blockade of Iran remains in place, but did not comment on whether Monday morning’s events constituted a violation of the ceasefire.

The developments come at a time of high tension in the region, following attacks on ships and energy infrastructure in the Persian Gulf, as well as Iran's warnings of strikes against any military presence in the area.

The recent escalation in Hormuz significantly increases the risk of a wider conflict, calling into question the security of global energy supplies and stability in the Middle East.
