Iran has been reconstituting its naval and missile capabilities with the objective of interfering with freedom of navigation. This reconstitution represents a threat to international commercial navigation.
The American operations aim to dismantle these Iranian capabilities that have been rebuilt. The expert consulted by the publication explained that these operations are part of a strategy to neutralize the threat to freedom of commercial navigation.
The United States is also responding militarily to previous Iranian offensives. The American operations thus have a dual purpose: to dismantle the reconstituted capabilities and to respond to Iran's past attacks.
