"PBS correspondent Reza Sayah reports from the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran blockaded three months ago for commercial ships linked to hostile nations. The US responded with a naval blockade of Iranian ports. The UN reports roughly 1,500 ships and 20,000 seafarers stranded. On May 25, US jet fighters destroyed two IRGC speedboats in the strait; three IRGC officers were killed, their bodies not yet recovered. The report shows stalled ships, including an Iranian oil tanker, and local sentiment on Hormuz Island, where three of the killed officers were from."
