- US President Donald Trump announced on May 4 that the United States would begin assisting ships stranded in the Gulf due to the ongoing US-Israeli war on Iran, in what he called ''Project Freedom''. The US is now deploying 15,000 military personnel, over 100 aircraft, warships and drones to "guide" the stranded vessels.
Iran has blocked most shipping through the Strait for more than two months in retaliation for US-Israeli actions. The US imposed its own naval blockade on Iranian ports last month. As a result, hundreds of ships and up to 20,000 seafarers have been stuck in the vital waterway, running low on food and supplies.

- Israeli court extends detention of two Gaza-bound flotilla activists
- Date posted
- 6 days ago
- Description
- An Israeli court has extended by two days the detention of two activists from a Gaza-bound aid flotilla, after prosecutors sought a longer extension over security-related allegations.
Lawyers for Thiago de Avila and Saif Abu Keshek say no charges have been filed and described the legal process as "fundamentally flawed and illegal". The two remain under interrogation and are being held in isolation, according to an advocacy group.
The activists were part of the Global Sumud Flotilla, which aimed to deliver humanitarian aid to the besieged Gaza enclave of Palestine. The convoy was illegally intercepted by the Israeli forces near Greece, about 600 nautical miles from its destination.
Israel has maintained a blockade on Gaza since 2007, with the genocidal war since October 2023 causing widespread casualties and destruction across the Palestinian territory.
