The article also recounts that a ceasefire began after earlier U.S. military escalation, was allowed for negotiations, and then was later extended alongside a U.S. \u201cblockade\u201d and continued until talks concluded.<\/p>\n<p>After Iran\u2019s threat, Iran\u2019s military claimed it struck a U.S. warship with missiles, but U.S. Central Command denied the allegation, stating no U.S. Navy ships were hit and that U.S. forces were supporting Project Freedom and enforcing the naval blockade on Iranian ports.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Iran has threatened to attack \u201cany foreign armed force\u201d that enters the Strait of Hormuz in response to President Donald Trump\u2019s unveiling of Project Freedom.<\/p>\n<p>The president announced Project Freedom in a  post published Sunday, writing that U.S. military ships will \u201cguide\u201d foreign-owned ships that are stuck in the Strait of Hormuz \u201cout of these restricted Waterways.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump said that \u201ccountries from all over the World, almost all of which are not involved in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/war-iran-poised-erupt-weeks-ceasefire-peace-talks-fail\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Middle Eastern dispute<\/a> going on so visibly, and violently, for all to see, have asked the United States if we could help free up their Ships.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis process, Project Freedom, will begin Monday morning, Middle East time,\u201d the president added.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"zxx\"><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/41D1Qo81eZ\">pic.twitter.com\/41D1Qo81eZ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Rapid Response 47 (@RapidResponse47) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RapidResponse47\/status\/2051038510115868802?\">May 3, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p> <script type=\"text\/javascript\"> \t\t\tif ( getCookie( \"ff_subbed\" ) ) { \t\t\t\tdocument.getElementById(\"anyclipvideo\").remove() \t\t\t} else { \t\t\t\tdocument.addEventListener(\"DOMContentLoaded\", function() { \t\t\t\t\tfunction loadAnyclip() { \t\t\t\t\t\tconst container = document.getElementById(\"anyclipvideo\");
