Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters spokesperson has announced that transit through the Strait of Hormuz has reverted to its previous state of strict military control, Iranian state media Press TV reports.
The spokesperson cited “repeated US violations and piracy under the guise of blockade”, according to Press TV.
State broadcaster IRIB quoted the spokesperson as saying: “Iran agreed to allow a limited number of ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz according to agreements.
“But US did not fulfil their obligations. So, the Strait of Hormuz is now closed again and passage requires IRAN approval.”
