So from two Iranian State Media, one said ^ (maybe translation issue)

Another one said: If the naval blockade continues, the Islamic Republic will also take reciprocal and necessary actions

And both said: The enemy (US, or trump) has repeatedly made contradictory statements within a single day, aimed at media hype.

-Keeping the Strait of Hormuz open is conditional on adherence to iran-U.S. ceasefire terms

-Significant differences between Iran-U.S. remain, including on nuclear issues, serious talks required

-A preliminary deal could be reached in the coming days, with the possibility of extending the ceasefire

-Such a preliminary deal could create space for talks on lifting sanctions, securing compensation for war damages

-Iran is ready to assure the world about the peaceful nature of its nuclear work if its demands are met
