Iran Plans Restricted Zone Beyond Strait of Hormuz
Iranian official media reported that the Secretary-General of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Mohsen Rezaei, announced that the country will declare a restricted zone outside the Strait of Hormuz in the coming days. This zone will extend from the US naval blockade line to areas in the Gulf, where sanctions will be imposed on any vessel entering it. This comes amid escalating tensions between Iran and the United States, with increasing mutual attacks against ships and oil tankers, and Washington expanding economic sanctions on Iran as part of an unprecedented escalation in the conflict, due to Iran's continued targeting of ships and the overall regional tension.
