Iran exposes US navy | Trapped 6,000 km from food & fuel: US navy stuck in Gulf

With forward supply hubs damaged and recent strikes erupting around the Strait of Hormuz, over 20,000 American troops on 20 warships must source food, parts, and fuel from Diego Garcia, more than 3,500 kilometres away and from Singapore about 6,000 KM away. Here is how Iran turned supply lines into a high-stakes war of attrition against the world's most powerful navy.
