After the siege in the sea, the US took major action on Iran, deploying 'Iron Gate' on land routes.

The US has decided to tighten the grip on Iran's land trade routes, further strengthening its siege. The head of US Central Command (CENTCOM), Admiral Brad Cooper, has ordered the formation of a special military task force named 'Task Force Iron Gate' on November 7. It will have 20 members, who will work closely with US agencies in Tampa, Florida. The task force is to completely stop the illegal smuggling of advanced weapons, technology and contraband goods through Iran's land borders and the Caspian Sea.

The establishment of Task Force Iron Gate will further strengthen our successful and unwavering blockade against Iran at sea. This collaboration of CENTCOM with U.S. interagency partners will completely dismantle the financing of Iran's terrorist network," said Admiral Brad Cooper.

CENTCOM, the US had earlier imposed a strict maritime blockade on all Iranian ports in the Arabian Gulf and Gulf of Oman in July 2026, through which Iran's crude oil exports worth more than $ 25 billion were stopped. Now a strategy has been made to complete Iran's economic and military siege by establishing this 'Iron Gate' on the land borders after the sea.

Iran U.S. 'strikes'

Tensions between the US and Iran have once again reached a very dangerous turn. US President Donald Trump has confirmed that the US military has destroyed the Iranian air defense system stationed there by carrying out a small military attack on Iran's Qeshm Island located in the Persian Gulf. Along with this, the US Department of Defense (CENTCOM) and the Ministry of External Affairs have made a big offer of $ 20 million (about Rs 165 crore) to the information about Iran's nuclear program, its secret bases and related scientists. The United States believes that Iran has a stockpile of uranium that is very close to making a nuclear weapon.
