Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Louise Skiyvone. U.S. Central Command says that no ships have gotten through the Strait of Hormuz since a U.S. naval blockade was put in place Monday, although one that did go through turned back. NPR's Jackie Northam has the latest.

facility in Louisiana. He was one of almost 30 people to have died in ICE custody over the past
