Iran says Strait of Hormuz will remain closed and illegal routes will soon be blocked
Iran has reiterated that the Strait of Hormuz will stay closed until its related demands are met, according to a report cited by BlockBeats on Oct. 7 and attributed to Iranian media outlet Fars News. In a separate reported statement, an adviser to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said the country will soon move to block what it described as 「illegal」 routes in the Strait of Hormuz. The update centers on two points carried in the source report: Tehran’s renewed position that the strait will remain shut for now, and the adviser’s comment that action against designated routes could come shortly. No further details on the demands or the specific routes were disclosed in the source text.
