🚨 Iran announced the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz on Friday, but just a day later, they've closed it again, citing continued US pressure and maritime blockade. The Iranian National Security Council stated they're taking control of traffic through the strait until the war ends, and won't allow conditional or limited reopening if the US maintains its naval blockade.

The closure might undermine efforts for new negotiations to end the war and escalate US-Iran tensions. Iran accuses the US of "maritime piracy" and violating agreements. This comes after Trump expressed optimism about reaching a deal with Iran "within a day or two".
