US Vice President JD Vance stated on Fox News that Iran's leadership is "really, really crazy" and willing to take extreme measures to disrupt Gulf shipping. He noted that a significant portion of US activity in the region focuses on ensuring freedom of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz. Vance claimed the US recently responded to Iranian preparations to lay mines in the strait and that Iran sometimes fires on its own allies to impede oil and gas flow. On Sunday night, the US military struck two Iranian launchers on Larak Island after IRGC forces were observed preparing to fire towards the Strait of Hormuz, marking the first US strike on Iran in several weeks.
