Iran’s foreign ministry says that the US naval blockade on Iranian ports is a violation of the ceasefire as well as an “unlawful and criminal” act.
“The United States’ so-called ‘blockade’ of Iran’s ports or coastline is not only a violation of Pakistani-mediated ceasefire but also both unlawful and criminal,” said foreign ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei, in a post on X.
“Moreover, by deliberately inflicting collective punishment on the Iranian population, it amounts to a war crime and crime against humanity,” Baqaei added.
