Over 15 US warships said to support blockade of Iran

 More than 15 American warships are currently deployed to support ongoing blockade operations in the Strait of Hormuz, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday, citing a senior US official. The outlet further stated that the warships would likely operate outside the Strait of Hormuz to avoid Iranian fire.

According to Navy and Central Command sources, the United States has an aircraft carrier, several guided-missile destroyers, an amphibious assault ship, and numerous additional warships in the Middle East. Some of these ships can marshal commercial vessels to certain locations to keep them in place, and others can launch helicopters to assist with boarding operations.
