And we understand, according to President Trump, around 150 vessels with oil on board were able to make it out of the Persian Gulf.
These are likely vessels coming from Gulf countries, not from Iranian territory.
But it's an indication that the president found a way to actually keep escorting these vessels, despite the fact, again, that the Iranians said they were in control.
And that's why it's so interesting today. You have top Iranian officials releasing statements this morning saying, in response to U.S. strikes, the Strait of Hormuz is closed.
Well, they said that before and the United States was moving millions of barrels of oil out of the Persian Gulf.
And so, again, this is a lot of rhetoric from the Iranian regime. And while this is happening, the president is playing 4-D chess against the Iranians.
He's not only stabilizing the oil markets, but he's now bombing the Iranian regime again to take out their air defense systems and their radar sites.
A message to those in Tehran that if you want to play this game any longer, these strikes will continue.
And once again, U.S. forces control the skies of your country.
-
Fox & Friends: Thank you. Just a real quick question, Trey. Are we bombing right now?
-
Trey Yingst: No, we're not bombing right now. According to U.S. Central Command, these strikes ended overnight.
They were quite extensive, not just targeting those positions outside the Iranian capital of Tehran, but along that southwestern coast next to the Persian Gulf.
At this moment, there's no exchange of fire taking place.
And as you could imagine, there are some regional diplomats that have reached out to us this morning to say that talks are ongoing.
The reality is, things are in a different place than they were 48 hours ago.
The president drew a red line, the Iranians crossed it, and ultimately he is responding with force.

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump - Video: Fox & Friends: Let's head out to Tel Aviv where Trey Yingst is standing by after speaking with the President hours ago multiple times, including when the President was in the Situation Room.
So, Trey, is it your understanding that there's a three-day plan, a four-day plan,
or is it "we're going to hit you until we get you back to the table plan?"
-
Trey Yingst: Yeah, Brian, good morning.
My understanding is that there's a new equation for the Iranians because they were unwilling to make a good faith deal at the negotiating table.
And I asked the President if they don't sign the deal, what's going to happen?
And he said, we'll bomb the S- out of them tomorrow night.
And so clearly, President Trump is keeping the military option on the table if the Iranians are unwilling to make those concessions.
But again, this is a change in thinking - rather than trying to force the Iranians into a deal that they've been unwilling to make so far the President is now targeting these critical assets belonging to the Iranian regime.
What we saw last night, broadly a "shaping operation."
You see the radar systems and the air defense systems taken out by not only Tomahawk missiles, but the fighter jets that were in the skies of Iran.
The message that President Trump sent overnight to the Iranian regime: "Iran does not control the skies of its own country."
