[US-Israel, Iran War Day #170] CENTCOM Chief Visits USS Abraham Lincoln Amid Iran Blockade

In Brief…

• US Central Command Commander Adm. Brad Cooper completed a 10-day trip to the Middle East on Saturday, visiting six countries and the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier in the Arabian Sea as more than 50,000 US troops operate across the region.
• Iran’s Central Bank said Saturday that a foreign provider revoked security certificates for some of its websites due to what it called US-Israeli “hostile actions,” causing SSL warnings while denying any cyberattack on its infrastructure.
• Iran and Oman have agreed on a safe passage for ships through the Strait of Hormuz over the past three weeks of talks, Iran’s foreign ministry said, but added that reopening the waterway depends on an end to the US naval blockade.
• Washington is increasing pressure on Tehran, with Trump promising tougher economic measures and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent saying unprecedented steps could come as soon as next week.
