A source indicated that the U.S. Navy has not yet escorted an oil tanker through the Strait of Hormuz. This comes after U.S. Energy Secretary Wright announced that naval forces had escorted an oil tanker through the volatile waterway, only to delete the post later. "The U.S. Navy successfully escorted an oil tanker through the Strait of Hormuz, ensuring oil continues to flow to global markets," Wright wrote on X, without providing further details. The post was deleted minutes later. Trump first raised the idea of naval escorts last week, and stated on Monday that he hoped they would not be necessary. Furthermore, Iran contradicted Wright, with a spokesperson for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard stating, "Any action by the U.S. fleet and its allies will be stopped within range of our missiles and drones. During wartime, no U.S. ship will dare approach the Sea of Oman, the Persian Gulf, or the Strait of Hormuz."
