US-Israel weigh land blockade to economically squeeze Iran
The Telegraph reports the US and Israel are weighing a land blockade of Iran to further economically isolate Tehran, with Trump and Netanyahu discussing “kinetic and non-kinetic” options; a senior Israeli official floated cutting land routes through Iran’s neighbors (Iraq, Turkey, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan), a move that would require broad regional cooperation and could invite retaliation, though experts say such a blockade is nearly impossible to enforce and may be a strategic distraction from other military plans as Iran rearmaments continue after recent strikes.
