The US military has taken control of the southern Strait of Hormuz, running secret night convoys to move 10 million barrels of crude oil daily under heavy fighter jet protection.
US officials revealed that the American military has secretly established its own shipping lane through the strategic Strait of Hormuz. Defying threats from Tehran, the US task force now moves massive oil shipments right past Iran’s doorstep every single night.
High Stakes Midnight Operations
The undercover mission runs like clockwork under the cover of darkness:
- Between 15 to 20 massive oil tankers navigate the southern route along Oman’s coast each night following strict US military orders.
- The secret corridor successfully moves around 10 million barrels of crude oil every day back into the global market
- US fighter jets patrol the skies overhead to protect the fleet, actively hunting down and shooting down Iranian missiles and drones aimed at the ships.
Operation Monitored From the United States
The entire high-stakes operation is being commanded thousands of miles away from Fort Bragg, North Carolina. American officers coordinate timing, route entry, and regional naval partners to sneak empty tankers into Gulf ports and guide fully loaded vessels back out safely.
US officials boldly claimed that American forces have effectively controlled the southern passage of the Strait for the past two months, not the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). They claimed to knock out Iranian radar systems to secure full control over the vital trade route.
