Israeli media: Trump failed to reopen Strait of Hormuz
Pars Today — Israel’s Channel 13 reported that, despite 60 days having passed, the Strait of Hormuz remains closed and that Trump’s efforts to reopen it have failed.
According to Pars Today, citing IRIB, the Israeli broadcaster reported that even after 60 days, the United States had failed to reach an agreement with Iran, not even on basic preliminary terms.
The Israeli media outlet added that during this period, the world became aware of a severe shortage of US interceptor and offensive missiles.
According to the Hebrew-language outlet, Trump’s threats to annex the Strait of Hormuz to US territory were also met with mocking and humiliating reactions from Iran.
