It seems that Iran might have already begun a "soft blockade" of the Strait of Hormuz (jamming), and honestly, considering the U.S. strike was mostly symbolic and limited, this is the right kind of response.
It’s not a full-on physical blockade yet, but more of a gray zone approach, and we’ll see how it evolves from here.
They’ll probably ramp up naval and military activity, create tension without firing a single shot, just enough to spike insurance and shipping costs and rattle the market.
It’s a smart move. It hits the U.S. and global economy where it hurts, shows they’re not backing down, but also doesn’t give Trump a clean excuse to escalate further. Controlled pressure, classic Iranian style.
