Iran warns against any interference in Hormuz Strait

Iran issued a stark warning that any US interference in the Strait of Hormuz will trigger a "decisive and rapid" military response.

Tehran declared the waterway falls under its "undisputed sovereignty," stating that all commercial and tanker vessels must strictly follow designated routes and protocols managed by Iranian authorities. Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs warned Saturday in a post on social media that the Strait of Hormuz is not a stage for foreign countries to display military power.
