NEW YORK, June 6. Last month, the U.S. military helped coordinate the passage of more than 100 commercial vessels through the Strait of Hormuz, the New York Times (NYT) reported, citing its sources. According to the report, navigation through this waterway remains dangerous for ships against the backdrop of stalled U.S.-Iranian reconciliation talks.

Previously, the New York Times reported that U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) assisted in the passage of 70 ships through the strait. Most of them turned off their transponders. The United States and Israel launched a military operation against Iran on February 28.

Major Iranian cities, including Tehran, were targeted. Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps announced a retaliatory operation targeting sites in Israel. U.S. military bases in Bahrain, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates were also targeted. Tehran has decided to close the Strait of Hormuz to ships associated with the United States, Israel, and countries that supported aggression against Iran.
