U.S. asserting military dominance through sustained strikes while attempting diplomatic off-ramps; Iran testing resolve through strategic chokepoint threats; regional powers (ASEAN, Gulf states) concerned about economic disruption and precedent-setting for maritime control claims.
Similar to 1980s Tanker War during Iran-Iraq conflict when threats to Hormuz shipping triggered international intervention; echoes Cold War brinksmanship over strategic chokepoints.
