In the first 24 hours of the U.S. naval blockade in the Strait of Hormuz, no ships have made it through and six merchant vessels were directed to turn around, according to U.S. Central Command.
More than 10,000 U.S. sailors, marines, and airmen, along with over a dozen warships and dozens of aircraft, are executing the blockade against vessels entering or leaving Iranian ports and coastal areas, according to CENTCOM.
