๐ฎ๐ท ๐ฅ - Vessels are maneuvering to reverse course in the Strait of Hormuz following renewed Iranian assertions that only vessels with Iranian authorization may transit. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy continues to disseminate broadcasts declaring the Strait closed and warning of consequences should vessels proceed.
It should be noted that a similar situation occurred last weekend, during which no attacks were launched against shipping.
This precedent does not necessarily indicate that the same outcome will occur this time.

#BREAKING ๐ฎ๐ท - IRGC Navy struck US military positions in the region in response to America's aggression and treaty violation.
โFollowing the Zionist regime's violation of the ceasefire in southern Lebanon, the treaty-violating American regime, as has been its practice, breached its commitments. Citing various pretexts regarding the unauthorized passage of a vessel through the Strait of Hormuz, the American regime conducted an airstrike against the coastal territories of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
In response to this act of aggression, the Navy of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps targeted positions occupied by the American military in the region.
Pursuant to Article 5 of the Islamabad Memorandum, authority regarding the control of passage through the Strait of Hormuz resides with the Islamic Republic of Iran. However, the United States, by instigating various factions, sought to violate this commitment. The necessary response has been executed and will continue to be executed. Should the aggression be repeated, our response will be more extensive than the current action."
