The United States has started a naval blockade near the Strait of Hormuz after failed talks with Iran. President Donald Trump ordered the move to increase pressure on Iran. Soon after, two oil tankers turned away from the route. Data showed both ships reversed course within minutes of reaching the area. The Strait of Hormuz is a key route for global oil supply. The blockade may affect trade and raise tensions in the region. Officials said the decision followed the collapse of talks in Islamabad. More developments are expected as the situation continues to change.
