00:00The world's most important oil route is under threat.
00:03The U.S. just dropped massive 5,000-pound bombs near the Strait of Hormuz.
00:08These weren't ordinary bombs.
00:10They were designed to destroy deeply buried missile sites.
00:13Those sites held Iranian anti-ship missiles,
00:16weapons that could target ships passing through the strait.
00:19And here's why it matters.
00:21Nearly 20% of the world's oil flows through this narrow route.
00:25Any disruption here can shake the global economy.
00:29Iran has already warned it could shut the strait completely.
00:32Since tensions began, oil markets are unstable.
00:35Gas prices are rising worldwide.
00:38The threat is growing fast.
00:40Drones, sea mines, and missile attacks are all in play.
00:44U.S. allies are now hesitant to step in.
00:46Meanwhile, pressure is building from Washington.
00:49One move could change everything.
00:51Because what happens in Hormuz doesn't stay in Hormuz.
