The Central Headquarters of the Khatam al-Anbiya (PBUH) of the Islamic Republic of Iran announced that the Strait of Hormuz has once again returned to a state of strict control. The spokesman of the headquarters emphasized: This situation will continue until the US ends the restriction on the movement of vessels from the origin to the destination in Iran and vice versa.


Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): The spokesman of the Central Headquarters of the Khatam al-Anbiya (PBUH) of Iran announced today (Saturday): Following previous agreements in negotiations held in good faith, the Islamic Republic of Iran agreed to the passage of a limited number of oil tankers and commercial ships through the Strait of Hormuz in a managed manner, but unfortunately, the Americans, with their repeated breaches of their commitments, continue to engage in banditry and piracy under the guise of a so-called blockade.

He added: For this reason, control of the Strait of Hormuz has returned to its previous state and this strategic strait is under the strict management and control of the Iranian armed forces.

The spokesman for the Khatam base continued: "As long as the US does not end the complete freedom of movement of vessels from Iran to its destination and from its destination to its origin, the situation in the Strait of Hormuz will be strictly controlled and will remain as before."
