U.S. to impose 20% toll in Strait of Hormuz
President Donald Trump announced the U.S. will impose a 20% toll for ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz, citing safety as justification. Iran had previously threatened a similar toll, which Secretary of State Marco Rubio and the United Nations argued violates international law. The move comes amid heightened regional tensions and rising gas prices in the U.S.
