The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, IRGC, has confirmed that three Iranian oil tankers and two ships carrying essential goods had crossed through the US naval blockade in the Strait of Hormuz.

IRGC stated this on Tuesday noting that the lifting of the blockade had become operational.

This came a few hours after the US military said in an advisory note that th
..e blockade of Iranian ports remains in effect pending the signing of a memorandum of understanding with Iran scheduled for June 19.


DAILY POST recalls that the US had imposed a naval blockade on the Strait of Hormuz in April, preventing ships traveling to and from Iranian ports from transiting the waterway.

Iran, the United States and Pakistan announced early Monday the finalisation of the MoU on ending the war, following weeks of negotiations, which would be officially signed on Friday in Switzerland.

Following the announcement, US President Donald Trump ordered the lifting of the anti-Iran naval blockade.

Ikorodu and oshodi branch of Iran no go gree this your talk ooooh...

All your leaders are kpaied, all your top generals are kpaied.

So how you take win the war self?

With this I 100 percent believe whatever trump says about the i-ranian situation.

Their country has lost its military, they have been begging to negotiate but just saving face

If the i-ranian had any bargaining chip, they would have included Israel leaving Lebanon

But hell no, them no born them tooooooo

Even, if the regime change doesn't come now, it would come later a case study Syria.

Most of their hardliners are all died with 72 virgins besides them

War is over, price of petrol should come down.

Nigerian government= NEVER.

God1000 Irans spokesman Igede chapter, over to u

I am pretty sure that a good number of dormant neurons were awakened and put into good use. Hoping it remains that way going forward.

That means Us really blocked the passage not IRAN .

IRAN was only playing stubborn now the won’t be going back with their Nuclear plans again which is the only thing US was fighting for .

USA eventually won .

Now fuel should drop in price .

Shame on Russia and South Africa.

How did USA won the war?
After agreeing to pay $12billion from the frozen funds of Iran.
And each Ship that moves through the strait of Hormuz must pay levies.
You are a learner in world Politics.

Go and listen to Trump's speech of February regarding the objectives of the war. Were they met? Don't reply before listening to it again.

Trump just used his stubbornness to put the whole world in pains courtesy of energy crises. Inflation everywhere.

Iran's Uranium enrichment still intact.
Regime change not achieved

Iran's frozen asset which they weren't asking of is now to be released to them
Strait of Hormuz now to be tolled

US burnt and lost about 3years of ammunition and defense stockpile which they're now striving hard to replace.

US exposed itself more to bigger rivals like China and Russia

US added a reputation of bombing school children to its historical "fame"

Isreal is now more exposed to ME enemies as Iran now has more understanding of the workings of Israel's defenses

Iran lost its Supreme leader, top military and government officials who have been and will be replaced. One of the most pointless persons to fight is he who doesn't fear death. These people do not see death as a loss.

USA don tire for the war high oil prices in the states Is grinding their citizens, and other nations are crying,midterm is fast approaching, the closure of the straits which Iran controls is a nightmare to USA, 25 billion dollars of Iranian assets would be unfozen, Iran would never give up their enriched uranium or ballistic missile program, its just a matter of time blockade of the Hormuz would happen again, I don clear for una eyes say Iran no be walk over, they gave America serious bloody nose and nearly strangled isreal, make trump try any rubbish again make I see…

Finally, Iran can breathe, lesson learnt

Petrol prices should be returned to N830 per litre immediately. There will be no allowance for selling off old stocks, as there was none before the price increase was implemented.

You must be joking, If a single country called Iran can challenge America influence in the middle East without nuke then iran is not a push over.

That's their business, if they like, they should believe what they are been told in their mosques.

1. How the US Lost and Damaged Bases
Iran utilized a strategy of mass saturation, using low-cost one-way attack drones and precision ballistic missiles. Backed by reported intelligence sharing from Russia, Iran targeted the heavily concentrated network of US forward operating locations across the Middle East.

BBC

Widespread Base Degradation: Independent satellite imagery verified that at least 20 to 28 military sites used by US and allied forces were struck across eight countries.

BBC
Repeatedly Targeted Hubs: Airfields such as Ali Al-Salem Air Base (Kuwait), Al-Udeid Air Base (Qatar), and Prince Sultan Air Base (Saudi Arabia) were hit multiple times, proving that the US could not completely seal its airspace.

BBC
Critical Air Defense Failure: Iran successfully targeted the "eyes" of US air defense. Striking a THAAD radar system in Jordan ($485 million) and an AN/FPS-132 early warning radar at Al-Udeid in Qatar ($1.1 billion) left blind spots in the Pentagon's regional coverage. This forced the US to scramble and redeploy THAAD components from as far away as South Korea to fill the gaps.

BBC

2. The Financial Drain: "Bleeding Money"
The conflict exposed a devastating asymmetric cost curve for the United States, straining its military budget and domestic stockpiles.

Atlantic Council

Cost Category
Estimated Loss / Expenditure Strategic Impact
Destroyed Military Hardware $2.3 billion to $2.8 billion Loss of state-of-the-art surveillance planes ($700M), over a dozen MQ-9 Reaper drones, and refueling tankers.
Base Infrastructure Repairs $310 million to $800 million Direct physical damage to hangars, communication radomes, and facilities.
Initial Operational Burn Rate ~$1 billion per day The first 10 days alone racked up $10.35 billion in operational costs.
Supplemental War Funding Requested $200 billion Requested by the Trump administration to replenish spent munitions and fix damaged systems.
The "Cost-Imposition" Curve
The ultimate financial defeat for the US was the economic math of interception. Iran deployed thousands of Shahed-136 drones costing roughly $35,000 to $50,000 each. To counter them, the US was forced to fire Patriot interceptors costing $3.7 million each and THAAD interceptors costing $12.7 million per round. This 106-to-1 cost ratio severely depleted US domestic munitions stockpiles, creating high strategic risks for other global theaters like Ukraine and the Western Pacific.

3. Why the US Couldn't Fulfill Its Objectives
President Donald Trump and the US military entered the war intending to permanently destroy Iran’s nuclear program, degrade its conventional forces, and cut off its regional proxy networks. They failed to achieve these for three structural reasons:

BBC
Failure to Neutralize Iran’s Military Industrial Base
The Pentagon initially boasted that Iran's military was quickly neutralized. However, US intelligence later admitted that Iran reconstituted its drone and missile manufacturing capabilities far faster than expected—often within months. Driven by domestic industrial resilience and supply assistance from China and Russia, Iran maintained its capacity to retaliate throughout the conflict.

The Collapse of the Gulf "Security Umbrella"
A core objective of the US presence in the Middle East is protecting its Arab Gulf allies and securing global energy corridors. Iran circumvented US defenses to strike critical infrastructure, hitting Dubai International Airport and the Ruwais refinery in the UAE. Furthermore, Iran’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz disrupted 20% of the world's oil supply and forced QatarEnergy to declare force majeure. Instead of proving American dominance, the war signaled to

Did you know all those old men before the war?

Omo US military no joke o. Imagine blockading someone’s backyard coming all the way from thousands of miles.
My guess is the US wants a different strategy with Iran. They could wipe them out in an instant if they really wanted to.

These two countries are playing with the economy of some countries and especially African countries...

@ Bolded, you’re right. These guys view death differently than we do. I take a pinch of salt when people celebrate bombing and killing of even the local terrorists. They dont care and are even happy to die. They see it as being “martyred”

Infact i watched one interview where an iranian scientist was saying he feels envious that his other colleagues have been martyred while he is still here.

The middle easterners dont scramble and run in the face of danger. You will be shocked the Ayatollah saw it coming and did nothing to protect himself

If death couldn't stop them then this guys are America and Israel nightmares.
This guys are not weakling as those in western world who claims to be a superpower under the guise of sophisticated technology.

If it is sure for Israel and America why are they stopping smaller nations for possessing nuke.
