Tensions in the Strait of Hormuz are escalating fast as Iran issues a stark warning to the United States. Tehran’s top negotiator, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, says Iran has ‘not even started’ in the ongoing standoff, signalling more pressure ahead. US President Donald Trump has launched ‘Project Freedom’ to escort stranded ships through the critical oil route, but Iran has warned that any foreign military presence will face retaliation. Conflicting claims, reported attacks on vessels, and rising oil price fears are adding to global anxiety. With diplomacy still fragile and military activity increasing, the crisis risks spiralling further. Is this just the beginning of a larger confrontation?
