Iran and US clash over Hormuz Strait tolls and control

The United States and Iran are escalating tensions over the Strait of Hormuz, a vital waterway for global oil shipments. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has warned ships away from routes near Oman, while US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that any tolls imposed there would spread to other waterways. The clash comes after Iran attacked a cargo ship, testing a deal by President Donald Trump to reopen the strait. Both sides are now disputing who controls the strategic passage, causing confusion for shippers.
