Israel and the United States have been conducting airstrikes on Iran since Saturday, February 28, which led to the killing of Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, and since then Tehran has been retaliating by striking Israel and countries in the region with missiles and drones.
Iran has implemented a naval blockade on the passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz, and targeted oil tankers attempting to cross it.
