US military remains 'vigilant' after Iran announces Hormuz closure

The U.S. military said Saturday it remained "present and vigilant" in the Strait of Hormuz, shortly after Iran announced it was closing the critical shipping lane.

"U.S. forces remain present and vigilant to ensure all aspects of the agreement with Iran are adhered to, obeyed, and in full force and effect," U.S. Central Command said in a statement.
