U.S. President Donald Trump has called on various countries to send warships to the Strait of Hormuz as the joint U.S.-Israeli assault on Iran enters its fifteenth day. Iran has responded with strong counterattacks and tightened control over the strategic waterway, reportedly striking a U.S.-linked vessel under the Marshall Islands flag. While Iran has allowed Turkish and Indian ships to pass, most other maritime traffic has been halted. Experts believe Trump’s call for a multinational naval mission is unlikely to gain much support.
Analysts cited by Al Jazeera, including Professor Mohammed Elmasry of the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies, described the proposed mission as extremely difficult and dangerous. Elmasry noted that warships move slowly and could easily become targets in the narrow strait, which lies close to Iran’s mainland. He added that Iran’s drones have a range of about 2,500 kilometers, giving it the capacity to strike vessels at will.
The heightened risk has already made many insurance companies reluctant to cover ships or crews operating in the area, further complicating any potential deployment.
