Iranian state media, citing officials, said movement in the Strait of Hormuz continues according to Tehran's arrangements and that any 'provocative action' by the United States will be met with an immediate response, according to Israeli news outlet N12.
Iranian state media, citing unnamed officials, reiterated Tehran's control over the Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday evening, warning that any 'provocative action' by the United States would trigger an immediate response. The statement, reported by Israeli news outlet N12, did not specify what actions would be considered provocative. The Zioneer has reported extensively on the Strait of Hormuz crisis, including Iran's closure of the waterway on June 8, subsequent threats to strike vessels deviating from designated routes, and demands linking the reopening to an Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon. The new warning appears to maintain the existing Iranian posture without announcing new measures.
