Task Force Iron Gate is a new US initiative aimed at disrupting Iran’s overland supply routes and preventing advanced weapons movement. It involves around 20 personnel coordinating with various US agencies from Tampa, Florida. The task force complements an existing naval blockade that has already hindered Iran’s oil exports significantly. Humanitarian aid will remain exempt from these restrictions despite the new measures.
