When will Iran close the Strait of Hormuz?

The closure of the Strait of Hormuz extinguished the flames of the Indian stove Following the escalation of tensions in West Asia and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, India is facing a severe crisis in the supply of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). In major cities like Delhi, Mumbai and Lucknow, people stand in long queues from 4 am with empty capsules to get their quota before the dealers' limited stock runs out. @Farsna [in reply to: Gas cylinders are scarce in India Indian magazine Chitralikha: After the US and Israel attacked Iran and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a shortage of LPG has become apparent in India, and in many regions, conflicts have arisen over the supply of gas cylinders. In some places, capsules are being stolen, and in other places, people are standing in long lines to fill capsules. In the Jhansi region, 524 filled LPG cylinders were stolen from in front of a gas depot. Long queues are seen in front of gas dealers and depots in Lucknow. People say that despite the gas running out, the cylinders are not being delivered to their doorsteps and that is why they have come to collect them themselves. Similar scenes are seen in other areas where people were waiting in long queues. The LPG shortage is also more evident in various areas of Kolkata. Most taxi routes in the city have been affected due to the lack of LPG. A queue of cars, about 1.5 km long, was seen in the Taratala area of south Kolkata. Some people had been standing in the queue since last night and others since this morning. Everyone had been waiting for hours to refill their LPG tanks. @Farsna]

The Pentagon and National Security Council significantly underestimated Iran’s willingness to close the Strait of Hormuz in response to U.S. military strikes while planning the ongoing wide-spread strike operation against Iran, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter who spoke to CNN. • • Top officials with the Trump Administration acknowledged to lawmakers during recent classified briefings that they did not plan for the possibility of Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz in response to strikes, under the belief that closing the vital waterways within the strait would hurt Iran more than the United States.
