Ebrahim Azizi, the chairman of the Iranian Parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission, has reiterated Tehran’s claims over the Strait of Hormuz and called for an end to Israel’s occupation of southern Lebanon, Al Jazeera reports.
“The strategic Strait of Hormuz is an inseparable part of Iran’s national sovereignty, and its management is solely in the hands of the Islamic Republic of Iran,” he was quoted as saying by the IRIB state broadcaster.
“Lebanon’s sovereignty will be secured not by disarming the resistance, but by ending the occupation and aggression,” he added.
