Darren Mott, former FBI special agent and cybersecurity expert, and Justin Fulcher, former senior Pentagon official, joined a panel discussion with NTD's Iris Tao.

Mott notes that few kinetic targets remain for the United States beyond small mine-laying ships in the Strait of Hormuz, but added that terrorist proxies and cyber proxies continue to pose significant threats worldwide.

While the U.S. military has decimated Iranian forces over the past two weeks, Iran still has capabilities to disrupt commercial shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, he said.

Although U.S. and Israeli efforts have neutralized Iran's regional naval and missile capabilities in the region, Fulcher points out that Iran still launches drones daily and has caused the traffic through the Strait of Hormuz to reduce sharply. He argues more should be done to neutralize these threats.
