For 25 days of the blockade.

"U.S. forces are currently preventing more than 70 tankers from entering or leaving Iranian ports," the report said.

According to CENTCOM, the said merchant ships are capable of carrying more than 166 million barrels of Iranian oil, the value of which is estimated at more than $13 billion.
