Extended to Arabian Sea and Strait of Hormuz protection amid Indian Ocean risks
The Iran-US war reached its 73rd day with talks at a deadlock.

Active in Red Sea; proposal to extend mandate to Hormuz rejected
Iran shut the Strait of Hormuz on February 28, 2026, after US-Israeli strikes, cutting off roughly a fifth of global oil supply. The US-Iran ceasefire, extended by Trump on April 21, holds formally — but Iran's May 10 counter-proposal demanded Iranian sovereignty over the strait, an end to all US sanctions, and an immediate lifting of the naval blockade. Trump called the response "totally unacceptable," and roughly 1,500 commercial vessels remain trapped inside the Persian Gulf.
