WSJ: US Government to Announce Multinational Joint Escort in the Strait of Hormuz as Early as This Week

Odaily News: U.S. officials stated that the Trump administration plans to announce as early as this week that multiple countries have agreed to form a coalition to provide escort for ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz. However, discussions are still ongoing regarding whether these operations should commence before or after the cessation of Iran's hostile actions. The White House declined to comment. Given the associated risks, many countries have remained noncommittal about participating in such escort missions until the hostile actions have ended. (WSJ)
