Trump Claims Strait Control Iran Denies
Iran has affirmed that the Strait of Hormuz remains under the control and management of the Islamic Republic, despite U.S. President Trump's claims of full American control over this strategic waterway. These Iranian statements followed the United States' imposition of a maritime blockade on Iranian shipping and ports, while Iran continues to manage the Strait with complete security. Iran emphasized that no vessel is allowed to pass without Tehran's permission. A temporary ceasefire agreement was reached in June, but it collapsed after a few weeks due to violations by both sides. Iran resumed limited attacks on ships that violated the arrangements, while the United States responded by launching strikes on areas in southern Tehran, aiming to weaken Iran’s ability to target vessels in the Gulf.
