On Wednesday (23 July 2025), Iran claimed that it warned USS Fitzgerald, the US Navy, through a radio message when he approached the Iranian water area, after which the vessel changed its path. Iranian government TV telecasted photos and audio recording taken with the help of a SH-3 Sea King helicopter, warning a person that the ship was moving towards the Iranian region.

The Iranian media described it as a provocative step and said that the forces monitoring the Iranian Jalasima forced the American ship to retreat.

IRGC’s misinformation-US
A US Department of Defense Department rejected the Iranian claim outright. He told the reates on the condition of anonymity that the mission of USS Fitzgerald was not affected. This interaction was safe and professional and it happened completely in the international water area. He also said that this campaign being done by the Iranian side is an attempt to spread wrong information towards IRGC (Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps).

Sea tension increased after nuclear tension
This conflict has happened at a time when the US recently attacked Iran’s nuclear installations. The US alleges that they are part of the nuclear weapon program, while Tehran has dismissed the allegations, saying that its nuclear program is entirely for civil purposes. However, in recent times, tension between the two countries at the regional level has been increasing, especially in sensitive water areas such as the Gulf of Hormuz and Oman’s Gulf. The latest incident took place on 22 June after the US air strikes on Iran’s nuclear installations during a 12 -day conflict between Tehran and Israel. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said that the damage caused by these attacks is serious, but he also said that uranium enrichment will continue.

Iran israel ceasefire: The rapidly rising price of crude oil had created a stir in the international world. The market experts were fearing to reach 110 to 120 dollars per barrel. However, on the sidelines of heavy tension in the Middle East, US President Donald Trump announced a ceasefire between Iran and Israel, crude oil prices fell rapidly. On social media platform Truth Social, President Trump said that ceasefire will become effective in the next 12 hours and the struggle that is going on in the Gulf country at this time will end.

Confirming this, a senior Iran official said that Tehran has agreed on the ceasefire with Israel. Israel’s channel 12 has stated in its report that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave his consent to the ceasefire agreement during a conversation with President Donald Trump.

Oil prices fall after ceasefire

After the announcement of the ceasefire, there has been a tremendous decline in the price of crude oil on Monday during the early trade in the Asian market. The price of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) August crude fissures fell 5.1 percent to $ 65.02 a barrel. It is at the bottom after June 12. On this day, Iran was attacked by a missile from Israel.

The price of Brent crude oil has already fallen by 8 percent after the news of no loss of life and property in the counter -attack on the US base in Qatar.

Trump announces ceasefire

President Donald Trump officially posted on Truth Social and wrote that this time is now of peace. Both parties have fully agreed on the session. It is worth noting that after the US attack on Iran’s nuclear installations in the weekend, the price of Brent crude oil on Monday jumped to $ 81 per barrel. However, this increase was very limited. Oil producing countries did not cut any kind of cut in its production nor did Iran take any such step threatening to shut down the Straight of Hormuz.

In such a situation, despite geopolitical tension, there was no such jump in oil prices, which the market experts were expecting. One of the reasons for this is that the group of oil producing countries OPEC+ had agreed that even if the oil supply is interrupted from Iran, the rest of the member countries will continue to supply global supply.

Tehran retaliation on us striks in ran: Amid the Iran-Israeli struggle, the US recently carried out an air strike at three major nuclear bases in Iran. The US deployed B-2 bomber aircraft to attack the Iranian nuclear sites and dropped a dozen bunker buster bombs of 30 thousand tonnes on them. America claimed that this attack has shocked Iran’s nuclear program. Now it is to see how Iran takes revenge on this attack from America.

Iran has worked for decades to develop multi-second military capabilities at its domestic and regional levels, especially a major objective to stop any possible attacks by the US. However, amidst the ongoing struggle with Israel, the US has now joined the Jewish country, so Iran can use its developed military capabilities completely against the US.

What can Iran’s response to response to US attack

• Stop Straight of Hormuz

After American action, Iran can shut down the Straight of Hormuz. This is a small route to Persian Gulf, through which 20 percent of the world’s oil and gas trade is done. This is a narrow route with 33 km width. If Iran closes this path, then it will affect the economy of the world. The prices of many other things including oil will increase significantly. Recently, the Iranian Parliament has approved the decision to close the Straight of Hormuz. However, this decision has been sent to the Security Council for final approval.

• Attack on US locations and its colleagues in the area

Thousands of US soldiers are stationed at permanent military bases located in Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar and UAE, which are very close to Iran. They are capable of attacking Iran soon compared to Israel. In such a situation, Iran can target American military bases and major oil and gas facilities of its allies. Doing this can increase the prices of oil in America significantly.

• Activate your local colleagues

Iran’s Axis of Resistance includes several local militant groups. However, rebel groups like Palestinian Hamas, Islamic Jihad and Hizbullah included in this group have become very weak due to their previous struggle at this time, but Iran still has the option of Huti rebels and Iran’s Iran’s Iran support. Both of them also have the ability to carry out missiles and drone attacks on the US and its other colleagues.

• Increase your nuclear program faster

After the US attack on Iran’s nuclear bases, it may take a long time to reveal the comprehensive information about the loss. In such a situation, it can be too early to claim how much damage has been done. At the same time, experts say that America or Israel’s attacks can slow Iran’s ability to make nuclear weapons for some time, cannot completely eliminate it.

There itself. On the other hand, Iran has spread its nuclear bases in many underground facilities across the country. From where he can complete his nuclear weapon making program faster.

Amidst tension in the Middle East, Iran’s Parliament has now been approved to close the hormun Strait. After this, now the supply chain of crude oil is expected to be affected due to its closure. However, Petrol Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said that there is no shortage of crude oil and the government is closely eyeing it. But, despite the US air strike on Iran’s nuclear installations, if the oil transport sea route closes the Iran Hormun Strait, then India is not going to make much difference.

Straight of hormun closure will not affect

According to industry experts, if the hormun strandary is closed, then there will be many options to import oil across India. From countries from Russia to America and Brazil, India can import oil of its need as an alternative source.

As soon as the tension between Iran and Israel increased the Iranian Parliament has approved the closure of Hormun Strait. From here, about 20 percent of the total oil and gas supply of the world is transported by this waterway. India imports about 40 percent of its oil and gas needs from this part. This hormuz is located between Iran in the north and Oman in the south and the United Arab Emirates. It is a major part of oil transport from major oil producing countries Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait and UAE.

India depends on imports 90% oil

India imports about 90 percent of its needs, out of which about 40 percent of which comes from the countries of Midil East via this hormun Strait. India imports about 51 lakh barrels of oil, which is converted to the refinery and prepared petrol and diesel.

But, due to the closure of this route, India oil prices are sure to increase, but it will not have much effect in India. As soon as tension in the middle East increased, India increased the purchase of oil from Russia in June. Middle East supplier increased oil imports from countries such as Saudi Arabia and Iraq. The oil hormun imported from Russia comes via a suicide canal separate from the strait. Apart from this, countries like America, West Africa, Latin America are also in option for oil backup countries as an alternative.

Iran Decision on Hormuz Oil Corridor: On Sunday (June 22, 2025) amid the ongoing war with Israel, the US also attacked Iran. America’s B-2 bomber aircraft have attacked Iran’s three nuclear bases with bunker buster bombs. After the US attack, Iran’s Parliament has now taken a big decision.

In fact, Iran’s Parliament has decided to close the International Corridor Hormuz after the US attack. This decision of Iran will affect the economy of countries around the world. This will also increase oil prices worldwide. For this, the prices of many other things will also increase.

20 percent of oil and gas in the world from business hormuz corridor

The hormies are the smallest marine route for cargo ships between Persian Sea and Gulf of Oman. About 20 percent of oil and gas in the world is done through this route. In such a situation, if this route stops and cargo ships change their path and import and import to their destination, then it will increase the transportation charge and it will take more time to travel the way.

Will try to keep the US and Israel corridor open

The impact of this decision of Iran will be seen on countries around the world, because it will affect the global economy. In such a situation, America and Israel will try to keep the hormuz corridor open through air defense. At the same time, European countries will also come in favor of keeping the hormuz corridor open due to economic instability and the battle of Iran-Israel will now be fought in the Gulf of Arabia.

The decision to close the hormuz bay of Iran’s parliament will not only increase the scope of this fight, but will also make it more severe. On the other hand, Huti rebels in Yemen have also warned to target the cargo ships of Israel and America in the sea.

Iranian Parliament approves verdict, will be implemented after the consent of the Security Council

However, Iran’s official news channel said in its report on Sunday (June 22) that Iran’s Parliament has approved the decision to close the hormuz corridor. Now this decision has reached the Supreme National Security Council of Iran for the last approval. If the Security Council gives its consent to this decision, the hormuz corridor will be closed.

At the same time, Iran MP and Commander of Revolutionary Guards, Ismail Kosari, told the Young Journalist Club that the proposal for the shutdown of the corridor is included in our agenda and will be implemented whenever needed.

India will not have much effect, has made arrangements

The impact of Iran’s decision to shut down the hormuz corridor amidst Israel-Iran struggle will not affect India much. India had already realized the possible influences of this struggle and have also made arrangements to avoid it. Taking a big step, India has now imported more oil from Russia and America than the Oil Suppliers of Middle East.

According to the PTI report, if we look at the data of the Global Trade Analyst firm CPLER, India has increased its oil imports from Russia and America only in June. At the same time, India has the highest import of oil from Russia in two years in June.

All the crude oil (crude oil) that comes out in the world passes through a very narrow path, its name is Hormuz Strait. This route is located between Iran and Oman and its width is just 33 kilometers. Through this, big oil producing countries like Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar and UAE send their crude oil and gas to the world.

Iran’s threat caused a stir

Recently, amid the increasing tension between Iran and Israel, Iran has indicated that it can consider closing the Strait of Hormuz. Ismail Kausari, a senior member of the Iranian Parliament and commander of the Revolutionary Guard, said that Iran is keeping every option open to punish the enemies. However, Iran has given such threats even in the past, but now when the situation is like war, the concern has increased further.

Why is this waterway so important?

The hormuz is the most important way of energy for the watercrowded world. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), 25 percent of the world’s crude oil and LNG pass through here. In 2022 alone, about 20 million barrels per day passed through this route. There is so much traffic on this path that more than 3,000 ships come from here every month.

Why the alarm bell for India?

India imports about 90 percent of its needs, and more than 40 percent of that comes from the middle-east. That is, the same path that passes through hormuz. If this route is interrupted, India may suffer heavy losses. This will increase oil prices, increase shipping expenses and insurance premiums and will affect everything from petrol-diesel to industry.

What is the government’s preparation?

Union Petroleum Minister Hardeep Singh Puri has assured people that India has 74 days of oil reserves. It has 40–42 days with IOCL, 9 days in government reserves, and the remaining BPCL and HPCL. That is, India is still completely safe, but the situation may be shocked if the situation deteriorates.

Will Iran really shut down the path?

Experts believe that this path is as important for Iran as for the rest of the world. Iran also sells oil to China by this route, and China is its biggest customer. In such a situation, if the path is closed, Iran will suffer loss itself. That is why it is hardly possible to close the whole way, but still in a situation like war, supply can stop at any time, which will be a huge shock for the world.

Crude oil prices already started increasing

As stress increased, oil prices reacted rapidly. US crude oil has reached $ 72.64 per barrel and Brent crude has reached $ 74.10 per barrel. Earlier, these prices were between $ 65–70. If the crisis increases, then an increase of 5 to 10 dollars per barrel can be seen.

What will be the result?

If the supply of hormuz drainage is interrupted, then fuel prices in the world may touch the sky, inflation may increase, and the economic growth of countries like India can be affected. Because it is not just a matter of oil, it is a complex issue related to trade, supply chain and geopolitics.

The hormuz is a small stitched, but its importance is very large. Its open supply for a emerging country like India is like a lifeline. And this is why every time there is a struggle in the world, the eyes first go on this path. This is not just a sea route, it is the pulse of the world’s energy.

Strait of hormuz: After the Israeli attack on Iran, tension in West Asia has increased considerably. Amidst the attack on Iran’s important nuclear installations, the one thing that is being discussed in the world at this time in the whole world is a hormuz strait. It is a narrow but important waterway between Iran-Oman and the southern part of the UAE. It connects the Gulf of Persia to the Gulf of Oman and then to the Arabian Sea.

It is far away from India, but whatever will happen here will be directly affected by your fuel bill to business and even the stock market. Hormuz Jamdamarumadhya is just 21 mile i.e. about 34 kilometers wide and 161 km long.

What is importance?

The hormuz is very important for the import and export of both the strawed crude oil and gas. This is followed by many important bandhgahs, such as Iran’s monkey Abbas who is an important naval and commercial port. Apart from this, it has a UAE Fujaria port, which is important oil reserves and shipping center point. Oman has Sohar Bandarah, which is used for business and shipping re-nuts. In addition, Qatar has Ras Lafan, which is an important LAG export port.

With this strait, about the fifth part of the world’s oil i.e. 17 million per barrel passes through this route daily. This is the way of export of oil producing countries like Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar and UAE. According to the US Energy Information Administration, about 83 percent of the oil passing through here reaches the Asian market.

Why worry about Iran’s threat?

Iran has threatened to shut down this hormuz strainer from Israel. However, this is not the first time that Iran has threatened such a threat. In such a situation, this oil vein is also being called in view of this importance of Strait. Experts believe that if any obstruction in the hormuz straw, global energy prices will increase, shipping cost will increase and supply will be delayed.

Another question arises whether Iran can stop it? Actually, according to the Iranian law, he controls the most narrow part of it, but the international conference states that Iran is not allowed to work at the cost of the rhyth of foreign ships.

Israel Iran Tensions: Wall Street was shaken on Friday after the attack on Iran by Israel. A strong attacks were carried out by Israel by targeting Tehran’s important establishments to prevent Iran from making nuclear weapons. In response to this, Iran was also reversed, after which where the voice of Israeli siren was heard, there was echo of explosions in Jerusalem.

Due to the attacks and counters between Israel and Iran on each other, on the one hand, there has been a fear in the minds of global investors, on the other hand, there has been a lot of tension in the Middle East.

Increased tension in the middle east

It is believed that if there are attacks on each other in this way, then the supply of crude oil can be interrupted from the Middle East. This is the reason that as soon as Israel attacked Iran, after that the price of crude oil climbed 7 percent.

Due to the increase in fuel prices, there is a decline in stocks of airlines companies. United Airlines has come to 4.4 percent, American Airlines 4.9 percent and Deelt Airlines 3.8 percent. However, the defense stocks including RTX Corporation have been seen to be fast since the Israeli attack.

Energy stocks boom

Energy sector is visible in enthusiasm due to Israeli attack on Iran. Diamondback energy has shown a jump of 3.7 percent and Exone of about 2 percent. While the S&P 500 index slipped 1.13 percent on Friday. Nasdaq was also 1.30 percent and Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 1.79 percent.

The market experts believe that if all this continues in this way, then the situation can be serious. Ilyas Hadad, a senior market analyst of Brown Barsha Heriman, says that if this situation continues, we can get caught in a completely military struggle.

Israel Iran Tensions: Israel attacked Iran’s important nuclear installations. After this, tremendous tension has increased in the Middle East countries. It is believed that the way the tension between the two countries is increasing, it will not only affect West Asia but India will also not be untouched by it. The reason for this is the Gulf of Hormuz. It is between Iran and Oman. It connects the Gulf of Persia to the Arabian Sea and Oman’s Gulf. In addition, it is a sensitive and an important path.

Hormus Gulf of Gully Oil Supply

The bay of this hormus can also be gauged from the fact that about 20 percent of the global oil supply passes through this path. Along with this, this is the only sea route for the Middle East oil producing countries, such as Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, so that they transport oil to the world market.

In such a situation, if the problem arises here, then the price of oil will go to the seventh sky. The supply chain will stop and the energy needs of the countries including India depend on it will have a direct impact.

What is the effect on India

The most important thing is that it can become a big danger for India, because India does about two -thirds of oil rectangles through this path. Apart from this, about half of LNG is also imported through this route.

In such a situation, if this path is closed, then India will have to find other routes immediately, which will create more costs and logistics challenges. India now has the option to consider other sources of energy and increase its reserve in view of the possibilities of increasing costs, so that such challenges can be faced in the coming time.

Oil price is predicted to increase

Brokerage firm JP Morger warned that if the struggle increases, then in that case the price of oil can increase to $ 120. This can also increase inflation and the current fiscal deficit of India. Also, everything will become expensive by increasing the price of oil.
