#IsraelIranConflict 🇮🇷 WHAT IRAN CLOSING THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ REALLY MEANS FOR THE WORLD
The Strait of Hormuz is a 21-mile-wide artery linking the Persian Gulf to the open seas.
Roughly 20% of global oil and a third of the world’s liquefied natural gas flow through it daily.
By approving its closure to Israeli-linked ships, Iran is not just escalating militarily. It is weaponizing global trade.
If fully shut, oil prices could surge past $130 a barrel.
Supply chains would seize up, shipping insurance costs would spike, and fuel-importing nations could face energy rationing or inflation shocks.
This move raises the stakes far beyond the Middle East. The strait is not just a waterway, it is a fulcrum of global stability.$BTC $ETH
