Iran's Revolutionary Guard Re-Closes Strait of Hormuz, Citing US Blockade

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has announced the re-closure of the Strait of Hormuz, stating it will remain shut until the United States lifts its naval blockade on Iranian vessels. The IRGC warned that any vessel attempting to approach the strait would be targeted. This action reverses an earlier decision to allow civilian transit, with Iran alleging US violations of a ceasefire agreement.
