The Washington Post reports that the US Army's 82nd Airborne Division is leading the mission to facilitate shipping through the Strait of Hormuz and operates a joint operations center in the United Arab Emirates. US forces also assist convoys of vessels to transit the Strait of Hormuz daily by assembling off the coast of the UAE, then passing through specific coordinates assigned to them by US forces with AIS activated. Once the ships reach the Gulf of Oman, they transfer their cargo to other vessels and then travel back to the Persian Gulf.
