Iran Closes the Strait Again War Is Not Over
The Strait of Hormuz is shut. Again.
Iran just reversed its decision to keep it open.
Tehran announced the closure after the US refused to lift its naval blockade of Iranian ports.
Parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf posted on X, "With the continuation of the blockade, the Strait of Hormuz will not remain open."
He added that any ships crossing the strait must now travel on a "designated route" with "Iranian authorisation."
This happened just one day after Iran declared the strait fully open under the ceasefire.
US President Trump said the American blockade would stay "until the full conclusion of our agreements with Iran."
That statement triggered outrage in Tehran.
Iran's Foreign Ministry called the blockade a violation of the ceasefire and promised an "appropriate response."
Now the strait that carries 20 percent of the world's oil is blocked again.
Oil prices are already responding.
The global energy crisis is not over.
Trump warned that if no long term deal is reached by Wednesday, "unfortunately we have to start dropping bombs again."
The war continues.
The strait is closed. And markets are bracing for more.$币安人生
