[00:00:02]It's the ultimate global economic chokehold: A narrow strip of water through one-fifth of the world's oil passes daily. And right now, the state of Iraq is on the absolute verge of an explosion in a directly defined escalation against the United States. Iran is officially announcing it is rewriting the maritime borders of the Middle East. Tehran has established a brand new entity called the Iranian Gulf State Authority, claiming unilateral military control over a massive 220,000 square kilometer zone. They are demanding that every single commercial and military vessel transit only with their explicit authorization. The message from Tehran is clear: They are locking the gates of the Gulf. This isn't just a political statement on paper. Iran's newly claimed border cuts directly into the territories of Oman and the United Arab Emirates. The reaction from the Gulf States has been swift and scaling. Anwar Gargash, the diplomatic adviser to the UAE president, blasted the move, declaring that Iran is desperately trying to fabricate a new reality on the heels of a clear military defeat. He dismissed Tehran's claim over the UAE's maritime sovereignty as nothing but fragments of dreams under international law.

[00:01:28]Specifically, the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, international ships are guaranteed safe transit passage through the United States, but there is a massive catch. Iran has never ratified that convention and they are using that legal loophole to enforce their own rules at gunpoint.

[00:01:47]Footage released by media linked to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps appears to show a punishment strike hitting a commercial tanker. The data was analyzed matching the vessel to the Baraka, a Liberian- flagged tanker targeted by projectiles.

[00:02:04]Meanwhile the US military is punching back just as hard. US Central Command releases dramatic footage of American Marines rappelling from a helicopter onto the deck of the Celestial Sea and Iran-bound oil tanker suspected of running The strict American blockade since the US blockade of Iranian ports went into effect on April 13 St. Com has redirected 94 commercial ships and completely disabled four vessels Washington has explicitly ordered all merchant ships do not comply with Rans' rule This brings us to the ultimate question What happens next US President Donald Trump revealed on truth social that he had a massive military strike against Iran Greenlet and scheduled but at the very last second he held it off Why because the leaders of Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the UAE begged him for a brief window to allow serious back channel negotiations to take place The man holding the key to these negotiations is Pakistan military chief General Asim Munir Who has arrived in Tehran. Munir is acting as the ultimate forceman delivering a final US framework to the Iranian leadership to end the war, lift the naval blockade, and unlock frozen assets. But Donald Trump has made it clear. His patience is wearing thin. He told reporters, "He is willing to wait only a few days for a deal," warning, "Would you believe me, if we don't get the right answer, it goes very quickly." We are all ready to go. The pieces are on board, the marines are on the water and the countdown has officially begun.

[00:03:49]Here Tehran accepts the deal carried by Pakistan's top general and the state of a move becomes the front line of a catastrophic global war.
