Marshall Islands–United States relations

Iranian Revolutionary Guards fired warning shots May 14 at a Singapore-flagged commercial ship in the Gulf that had collided recently with an Iranian oil rig, US officials said May 14.

Iran has released the Maersk Tigris cargo vessel seized by its patrol boats in the Strait of Hormuz last week over a business dispute, official media said May 7.

The US maintains "a robust presence", in the waters near the Strait of Hormuz "to deter destabilizing activities," State Department Spokesman Jeff Rathke has said.
