美国为重新开放霍尔木兹海峡展开的行动正遭遇火力打击，美军在开始引导船只通过这条全球最关键航道之一时，拦截了伊朗的导弹和无人机，并摧毁了 targeting 商业船只的攻击艇。
美国中央司令部（CENTCOM）表示，两艘悬挂美国国旗的商船已在这次被称为“自由计划”的行动中顺利通过海峡，尽管伊朗官员否认这一说法，称其“毫无根据”，并警告任何外国军事存在都将遭到攻击。
唐纳德·特朗普总统警告称，任何伊朗袭击美国船只的行为都将遭到压倒性武力反击，称伊朗会被“从地球上彻底消灭”，而伊朗一名高级指挥官则表示，若美军“靠近并进入”海峡，美军将成为打击目标。
本次行动迅速演变为对海峡控制权的直接考验，美军在火力下引导船只通行，同时伊朗威胁袭击任何外国军事存在——这场冲突可能将双方拖入全面对抗。

特朗普的末日式伊朗警告推高美国全面打击威胁的风险
特朗普在Truth Social平台发帖称，伊朗在行动期间向“无关国家”开火，包括一艘韩国货船，并暗示盟友可以加入此次行动。
“或许现在是韩国加入任务的时候了！”他写道。
中央司令部司令布拉德·库珀海军上将对记者表示，行动开始时，伊朗军队向受美国保护的船只发射了巡航导弹、无人机和小型快艇，目标主要是商业船只以及部分美国海军舰艇。
库珀称，美军拦截了这些袭击并摧毁了六艘伊朗小型快艇，补充说美军“挫败了所有这些威胁”。
他表示，两艘悬挂美国国旗的船只“顺利”通过海峡，预计将有更多船只开始利用这条航道通行。
本次行动集结了大规模美军兵力，包括导弹驱逐舰、100余架战机、无人系统以及约15000名官兵。
库珀表示，美国并非单独为船只护航，而是在海峡范围内提供分层“防御保护伞”，整合海军、空军和电子战能力。
他还称，美军花了数周时间利用先进技术清理并验证了一条通行航道，首先通过派遣悬挂美国国旗的船只通过完成了测试。
霍尔木兹海峡承担着全球约四分之一的海上石油贸易，任何中断都将对全球市场造成重大影响。
伊朗强烈反对美国的行动，伊朗军方联合指挥部负责人阿里·阿卜杜拉希警告称，任何进入海峡的外国部队“都将遭到攻击”。
伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队也否认有任何商船顺利通过该航道，称美国的说法“毫无根据”。
目前的局势使得海峡陷入实际争夺之中，美国宣称已开辟一条安全的通行航线，而伊朗否认有船只通行，并威胁将发动进一步袭击。

特朗普将“自由计划”定位为帮助“中立和无辜旁观者”的人道主义行动，称许多船只补给不足，需要协助恢复正常运营。
但他也警告称，任何干扰行为都将遭到压倒性武力反击。
此次行动展开之际，脆弱的停火协议出现破裂迹象，阿拉伯联合酋长国表示其防空系统拦截了从伊朗发射的弹道导弹、巡航导弹和无人机。
尽管美国已经证明可以在重兵保护下引导船只通过海峡，但目前仍不清楚该行动能否扩大至正常商业航运规模，也不确定如果伊朗袭击加剧，能否维持安全通行。
退休海军陆战队上校雷·格伯表示，目前鲜有独立证据表明商业航运已大规模恢复，他指出，船舶追踪数据和行业信号尚未明确反映出航运量增加。
“我们并未看到太多相关证据，”格伯说，“大多数行业人士都表示他们仍在等待。”
他还质疑美国是否完全化解了该航道最重大的威胁之一：海军水雷。
“如果他们清理出了一条航道，我的第一个问题会是，‘那么你们扫过雷了吗？’”他说。
格伯补充道，即使最初的通行行动取得成功，随着伊朗对其认为的影响力丧失做出反应，长期维持该行动可能会变得更加危险。
“霍尔木兹海峡是伊朗的主要筹码。任何改变现状的行为都有可能回到更激烈的冲突中，”他说。
行动的下一阶段——是否有更多船只跟进，以及袭击是否会升级——将大概率决定海峡是能够完全重新开放，还是仍将处于实际争夺状态。

Trump opens Hormuz under fire with ‘Project Freedom’ as Iran warns of attacks

Expert warns US shipping plan faces risks in Hormuz
Retired Marine colonel says key threats remain as Iran continues attacks in the Strait.

The U.S. operation to reopen the Strait of Hormuz is unfolding under fire, with American forces intercepting Iranian missiles and drones and destroying attack boats targeting commercial shipping as they begin moving vessels through one of the world’s most critical waterways.
U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said two U.S.-flagged merchant vessels have successfully transited the strait under the effort, dubbed “Project Freedom,” even as Iranian officials rejected the claim as “baseless” and warned that any foreign military presence would be attacked.
President Donald Trump warned that any Iranian strike on U.S. vessels would be met with overwhelming force, saying Iran would be “blown off the face of the earth,” while a senior Iranian commander said American forces would be targeted if they “approach and enter” the strait.
The operation has quickly turned into a direct test of control over the strait, with U.S. forces moving ships under fire while Iran threatens to strike any foreign presence — a clash that could pull the two sides deeper into open conflict.

TRUMP’S APOCALYPTIC IRAN WARNING RAISES STAKES FOR SWEEPING US STRIKE THREAT
In a post on Truth Social, Trump said Iran had taken “shots at unrelated Nations” during the operation, including a South Korean cargo ship, and suggested allies could join the effort.
“Perhaps it’s time for South Korea to come and join the mission!” he wrote.
CENTCOM Commander Adm. Brad Cooper told reporters that Iranian forces launched cruise missiles, drones and small boats at vessels under U.S. protection as the operation began, targeting primarily commercial shipping as well as some U.S. Navy ships.
U.S. forces responded by intercepting the attacks and destroying six Iranian small boats, Cooper said, adding that American forces “defeated each and every one of those threats.”
He said the two U.S.-flagged ships transited the strait “uneventfully” and that additional vessels are expected to begin moving to take advantage of the passage.
The operation involves a large U.S. military presence, including guided-missile destroyers, more than 100 aircraft, unmanned systems and roughly 15,000 service members.
Cooper said the U.S. is not escorting ships individually but instead providing a layered “defensive umbrella” across the strait, combining naval, air and electronic warfare capabilities.
U.S. forces also spent weeks using advanced technology to clear and validate a transit pathway, which was tested by sending U.S.-flagged ships through first, he said.
The Strait of Hormuz carries roughly a quarter of the world’s seaborne oil trade, making any disruption a major concern for global markets.
Iran has sharply rejected the U.S. operation, with Ali Abdollahi, head of the Iranian military’s unified command, warning that any foreign forces entering the strait “will be attacked.”
Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps also has denied that any commercial ships successfully transited the waterway, calling U.S. claims “baseless.”
The developments leave the strait effectively contested, with the U.S. asserting it has opened a secure transit route while Iran denies that ships are moving and threatens further attacks.

Trump has framed “Project Freedom” as a humanitarian effort to help “neutral and innocent bystanders,” saying many ships are running low on supplies and need assistance to resume normal operations.
But he has also warned that any interference would be met with overwhelming force.
The operation is unfolding as the fragile ceasefire shows signs of fraying, with the United Arab Emirates saying its air defenses engaged ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and drones launched from Iran.
While the U.S. has demonstrated it can move ships through the strait under heavy military protection, it remains unclear whether the effort can scale to normal commercial traffic levels or sustain safe passage if Iranian attacks intensify.
Retired Marine Corps Col. Ray Gerber said there is limited independent evidence so far that commercial shipping has resumed at scale, noting that maritime tracking data and industry signals have yet to clearly reflect increased traffic.
“We’re not really seeing a lot of evidence of it,” Gerber said. “Most of the industry is saying they’re still waiting.”
He also questioned whether the U.S. has fully mitigated one of the most significant threats in the waterway: naval mines.
“If they’ve cleared a corridor, my first question is going to be, ‘So you’ve swept it for mines?’” he said.
Gerber added that even if initial transits succeed, sustaining the operation could become more dangerous over time as Iran responds to what it sees as a loss of leverage.

“The Strait of Hormuz is Iran’s primary leverage point. Any changes to that status quo raise the possibility of returning to more active conflict,” he said.
The next phase of the operation — whether more ships follow and whether attacks escalate — will likely determine whether the strait can be fully reopened or remains effectively contested.
