Six months into US-Israel campaign, Iran faces intensified economic pressure with oil exports below 500,000 bpd and inflation nearing 90%; Strait of Hormuz remains closed since Feb 28
The United States and Israel's coordinated military campaign against Iran, launched on February 28, has shifted back to economic pressure after six months. On August 24, the US Treasury initiated Operation Economic Outcast, an expanded campaign to sever Iran's remaining financial links with the outside world. Iran's oil exports have fallen from nearly 1.8 million barrels a day before the war to below half a million, while inflation is approaching 90%, with food prices more than double a year ago. The Strait of Hormuz, closed by Iran in retaliation on February 28, has not reopened.
