Iran has closed the Strait of Hormuz again, according to Tehran’s Fars News Agency.
“Control of the Strait of Hormuz has returned to its previous state, and this strategic strait is under the strict management and control of Iran’s Armed Forces,” an Iranian spokesman was quoted as saying.

However, the United States had continued to “engage in banditry and maritime piracy under the guise of a so-called blockade”, the spokesman said.
He added that the Strait of Hormuz would remain “tightly controlled” until the US agreed to complete freedom of navigation for vessels passing through the waterway.
