Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf warned that a US naval blockade targeting Iranian ports could raise global oil prices significantly. He mocked current American fuel costs of $4-$5 per gallon, suggesting prices would rise higher. The US military announced it would enforce the blockade starting 7:30 pm IST, restricting ships entering or leaving Iranian ports in the Arabian Gulf and Gulf of Oman.
