Trump rules out N-option amid Hormuz struggle - World
President Donald Trump ordered the US Navy to destroy any vessels laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz, citing "total control" over the strait. The move followed a successful seizure of an Iranian tanker off Sri Lanka and heightened tensions with Iran. The Pentagon also announced the boarding of a sanctioned Iranian oil tanker in the Indian Ocean, while Iran received its first revenue from tolls imposed on shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. Meanwhile, a third US aircraft carrier arrived in the Middle East, bringing the total number to three. The Senate voted against a motion to advance a war powers resolution that would have limited Trump's ability to continue hostilities beyond the timeframe allowed under US law.
