CLAIM · DEFENSE & SECURITY
“The cumulative number of commercial vessels redirected under the US blockade of Iranian ports, in the latest figure US Central Command publishes on or before 2026-12-01.”
This claim comes from The Defense Ledger: War, Bills and Budgets from the Lame Duck to 2027, published on 2 November 2026, and entered the ledger on 2 November 2026. The firm locked a range of 145 to 168 vessels with a central estimate of 155; a range item is scored by whether the published figure lands inside the band, outside the Brier rule. It resolves by 2 December 2026, only against a dated public source.
