Trump says US will ‘help free up’ ships stuck in Hormuz Strait

The United States will "free up" ships stuck in the Strait of Hormuz. The operation, dubbed Project Freedom, is described as a "humanitarian gesture". US President has warned Iran against interfering with the operation, stating that many ships are running low on food and essential supplies for their crews. If Iran interferes, the US will "deal with it forcefully". The US will use its best efforts to safely remove Iranian ships and crews from the Strait.
