@m1ha313 You should be asking that about every AXIOS headline...

@ThePowerAudit How do we know any of these images or videos are real? What’s the source?

Here is the video with IRGC Navy audio telling them to turn around and report to port immediately.
The Strait of Hormuz is not open for business. It is now 4 PM and markets are closed. The US is cleared to resume escalatory rhetoric until Sunday at 6 PM.

@rivercove57 The US Blockade is not operating in that area where they turned around.

Reminder, from this morning I said don't trust the headlines

The fine print on today's "Hormuz open" announcement: Iranian State TV: "Ships passing through Hormuz need IRGC coordination." Iranian military: "Military vessels not allowed to pass." Norwegian Shipowners Association: "Situation remains unresolved" due to sea mine concerns. Hapag-Lloyd: Will refrain from passing. No Western commercial fleet will voluntarily coordinate with IRGC. That's the operational reality. The strait is "open" in the same sense it was yesterday: open under Iranian coordination terms, which commercial shipping won't accept. The tollbooth is intact. The filter is intact. The blockade against Iran specifically remains in full force per Trump's own Truth post. What changed today: the paper price of oil. What didn't change: anything physical. TODAY IS OPEX day. If you think there is about to be a peace deal I would caution your optimism

US DOE just loaned 26.03 million barrels of SPR crude to 9 companies including BP, Exxon, and Energy Transfer. 87% uptake on the 30M offered.
This is the supply-side pressure valve. It keeps WTI controlled, gives Trump bond market cover to extend the blockade, and confirms physical crude tightness is real. Refiners would not grab SPR this aggressively if the Iran reopen were functional.
The US goal is to keep the global energy crisis going as long as it can to starve and leverage China, while negotiating better terms with NATO and Greenland. SPR loans are the tool that makes extension possible. Until we start getting leaked preterms favorable to the US from China, or NATO beginning to capitulate, the US is happy to continue starving everyone while locking in long-term deals. Especially natural gas, which requires some infrastructure build up but the US has been stockpiling for this. NG is down on the year domestically while up 58% in Europe.

CELESTYAL DISCOVERY did not mess around and that seems to be paying off.. Only one I am tracking to have made it out this morning from PORT RASHID

SERRANO just became the first vessel to depart Chabahar since the destroyers news reports of stopping ships at Chabahar. AIS turned on.
Togo flag container ship, IMO 9167083. Departed April 16 at 10:21 UTC in ballast at 4.8m draft. Currently 8.6 knots on course 122°, declared destination Nhava Sheva, India. ETA April 23.
Blue Sky is heading back in to port

Blockade live Day 5 thread:
SHALAMAR is still going and getting closer to exiting the Gulf of Oman

Video breakdown: PAKISTAN WARSHIP 4 escorting SARGODHA.
Pakistani-flagged crude oil tanker SARGODHA (IMO 9360465), laden at 11.6m draft, escorted by PAKISTAN WARSHIP 4 through the Gulf of Oman. The warship ran parallel at matching speed (10.8 kn) until SARGODHA cleared the Iranian border line, then turned around, heading back west.
The escort had one job: get SARGODHA through the blockade zone. Once clear, the warship released her and reversed course.
Pakistan mediates the US-Iran talks. US officials reportedly heading back to Islamabad within days. The warship just demonstrated that Pakistani-flagged cargo gets physical military escort through the US blockade filter. The US Navy let them pass.
Watching who it escorts next...SHALAMAR is a candidate. Not a professional video or youtuber so pardon the quality.

NEW: Iran's presidential spokesperson directly addresses Trump and calls his claims today "baseless statements of the enemy," including his claim that Iran agreed to never close the Strait of Hormuz again.

@HFI_Research Structurally you're right, but obviously that doesn't account for Bessent, Axios, and Trump Truth posts on OPEX day. I see this as an adding day
