About this format and its limits

This page distinguishes official records, attributed statements and gaps in the sources checked about U.S. military operations, the blockade of Iranian ports, diplomacy and nuclear inspections.

Statements by governments and other participants establish what they said, not that their military or economic assessments are true. Reuters and AFP reporting on confidential IAEA documents is identified as reporting, not direct access to those documents.

Linked sources were independently read on Nov. 13, 2026. Items not backed by a primary document, two independent outlets or an attributed statement were removed. Differently scoped casualty statements are not treated as a verified total for the war.

Who says what

Statements and reports identified by their source, not independent proof of underlying assertions.

  • C5 Official In its July 13 release, CENTCOM said that during April 13–June 18 its forces redirected more than 140 compliant vessels, disabled nine non-compliant ships and allowed more than 50 commercial vessels supporting humanitarian aid through.
  • C10 Documentary The IAEA Board of Governors passed a resolution on Sept. 9 reporting Iran to the UN Security Council over its safeguards noncompliance, by a 23-3 vote, according to Reuters and Arms Control Today.
  • C11 Official IAEA chief Rafael Grossi told the UN Security Council on Oct. 27 that the agency cannot confirm that none of Iran's safeguarded nuclear material has been diverted. He named Iran's declared 440 kg of highly enriched uranium as a particular concern.
  • C12 Documentary Reuters and AFP reported on Nov. 13 that a confidential IAEA report said the agency did not know the exact location of Iran's Isfahan Fuel Enrichment Plant, its status for safeguards purposes, or whether it held nuclear material.
  • C13 Documentary AFP reported on Nov. 13 that the IAEA said it could not conclude that no declared nuclear material had been diverted from peaceful use, calling this a serious proliferation concern.
  • C14 Testimony Iran's position: it remains committed to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and blames U.S. and Israeli attacks for limiting cooperation with the IAEA. Iran told the agency inspections are not possible in the current security situation.
  • C15 Testimony Iran's security chief Mohsen Rezaei said on Nov. 11 that Iran will not allow any enriched nuclear material to leave the country.
  • C16 Testimony Iran's Assembly of Experts said on Nov. 12 that the issue of leaving the NPT and reviewing the country's defense doctrine had become an unavoidable necessity. It urged officials to address the issue under the Leader's guidance.
  • C18 Official In a Nov. 7 release, CENTCOM said the naval blockade had prevented Iran from exporting more than $25 billion in crude oil.
  • C20 Testimony On Nov. 9 Trump said in a social-media post that renewed full-scale military action seemed quite unlikely. After meeting Qatar's prime minister, he said the war was militarily effectively over. He supported continuing the blockade.
  • C21 Testimony Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Nov. 10 there is no need for major combat operations because the blockade and sanctions are hurting Iran's economy.
  • C22 Testimony Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said on Nov. 10 that U.S. forces struck more than 13,000 targets in under 40 days and destroyed more than 80 percent of Iran's nuclear industrial base.
  • C23 Disputed Iran's Defense Ministry called Hegseth's account a fabrication and said Iran's weapons stockpile far exceeds U.S. figures.
  • C24 Testimony Iran's parliament speaker and lead negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said the Strait of Hormuz will never return to its pre-war status. He said Iran is waiting for a U.S. reply to its seven conditions, including lifting the blockade and sanctions.
  • C25 Testimony Trump posted on Nov. 12 that the U.S. does not need a deal with Iran and told Vice President JD Vance to turn his attention elsewhere.
  • C26 Disputed Iran's Revolutionary Guard said it targeted and destroyed a U.S. early-warning radar in Bahrain, in retaliation for an air attack on a communications tower in Sirik.
  • C27 Disputed CENTCOM said U.S. forces shot down two Iranian drones launched toward Bahrain, reported no injuries or damage, and called the radar claim false.
  • C29 Testimony Four senators (Bennet, Duckworth, Sanders, Van Hollen) said on Nov. 12 that any short-term spending bill before the Dec. 11 deadline must bar funds for the Iran war. Their statement says more than 20 U.S. service members have been killed.
