The latest news of Iran and developments in the situation between America, Iran and Saudi Arabia in the Persian Gulf

This new episode of Samari channel devotes its time to discussing the tense US-Iranian relations in the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf. The US Central Command in the Gulf (Centcom) announced receiving F-16 fighter jets from the US Department of Defense (The Pentagon) in addition to 2,000 US Marines to further secure the Strait of Hormuz against the repeated Iranian detention of oil tankers transiting Hormuz.

The episode presents full details of Tehran's attacks on American oil tankers, emphasizing the mullahs' regime's desire to threaten Washington with its ability to disrupt global trade through the Strait of Hormuz if it does not agree to a just settlement with it, represented in reviving the nuclear agreement according to Iranian terms. The episode also refers to the failure of the US government to sell an Iranian oil shipment consisting of 800,000 barrels that the US Navy had confiscated along with an Iranian oil tanker more than a year ago without success in selling it to US companies in the Gulf of Mexico because of these companies' fears of Iran's subsequent retaliation in the waters of the Persian Gulf.

Finally, an analysis published by the British Telegraph newspaper warned that the current tensions would lead to a repetition of Operation Praying Mantis, which took place in April 1988, during which the American fleet succeeded in destroying half the force of its Iranian counterpart after an American ship was exposed to an explosion from an Iranian mine that the Iranian navy had planted along the Gulf waters to stop the movement of Arab oil tankers during the Iran-Iraq war.

The Strait of Hormuz crisis began in 2019, when the United States accused Iran of carrying out attacks on oil tankers in the Persian Gulf. Iran denied the accusations, but seized a British oil tanker in retaliation. The United States responded by blocking Iranian oil and deploying more warships to the region.

The crisis escalated in 2020, when Iran shot down a US drone, and the US retaliated by launching an airstrike on an Iranian military base in Iraq.

After that, the crisis subsided slightly, but the tension between the United States and Iran remains.

The Strait of Hormuz crisis caused a rise in global oil prices, and also disrupted navigation in the Persian Gulf. The crisis has also led to an increase in tension between the United States and Iran, and an increase in the possibility of a military conflict between the two countries.
