The United States Central Command (CENTCOM) has marked 100 days since the resumption of its naval blockade on Iran, announcing that measures taken during this period have prevented Tehran from exporting at least $25 billion worth of crude oil. According to a CENTCOM statement, the blockade has also restricted the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps’ ability to fund allied militias, criminal networks, and terrorist activities.

In its statement, CENTCOM described the renewed blockade as a “steel wall,” emphasizing that the measures are aimed at curbing Iranian oil exports and limiting the financial resources available to the Revolutionary Guard.

CENTCOM added that no maritime exports or imports to or from Iran have been recorded, except for humanitarian aid, which US forces have allowed to pass.
