An Iranian military statement said any shipping through the strait will be affected.It sounds like you\u2019re describing a breaking-news claim: Iran says it has \u201cfully closed\u201d the Strait of Hormuz to *all* vessel traffic (including oil tankers and commercial ships), citing regional insecurity after U.S.strikes on multiple targets, and warning that any shipping through the strait will be affected.<\/p>\n<p>If you want, I can help in one of these ways:<\/p>\n<p>1) **Summarize** what this statement likely means for shipping and <a

plausibility\/implications**-e.g., what \u201cclosure\u201d would involve in practice and what signs to look for (shipping AIS data, insurance rate changes, tanker route diversions, price moves).<\/p>\n<p>Which option do you prefer, and do you want a swift summary or more detailed analysis?  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read
