US says it has missile destroyers in Gulf, two American ships have crossed Hormuz

(Reuters/Al Arabiya) The US military said two US Navy guided-missile destroyers had entered the Gulf to break an Iranian blockade and that two US ships had transited the Strait of Hormuz, after Iran said it had prevented a US warship entering the Gulf. US Central Command said its forces were supporting President Donald Trump’s “Project Freedom,” which aims to “guide out” commercial ships stranded in the Gulf by the US-Israeli war on Iran, and were enforcing a blockade of Iranian ports. – US says it has missile destroyers in Gulf, two American ships have crossed Hormuz
