Previously, U.S. Energy Secretary Wright had announced that naval forces had escorted a tanker through the tense waterway, but later deleted the message. "The U.S. Navy successfully escorted a tanker through the Strait of Hormuz, ensuring that oil continues to flow to global markets," Wright wrote on X, without providing further details. The message was deleted minutes later. Trump first proposed the idea of naval escorts last week and stated on Monday that he hoped it would not be necessary to use naval escorts. Additionally, Iran also contradicted Wright, with a spokesperson for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard stating, "Any actions by the U.S. fleet and its allies will be stopped within the range of our missiles and drones. During wartime, no U.S. vessel would dare to approach the Sea of Oman, the Persian Gulf, and the Strait of Hormuz."
