Iran Warns US Against Controlling Strait of Hormuz, Threatens Regional States
An Iranian military spokesman from the Khatam al-Anbiya Command strongly condemned US President Donald Trump's recent statement about seizing and managing the Strait of Hormuz. The spokesman declared that Iran will not allow the United States to interfere in the management of the strategic waterway in any way. Tehran warned it would respond decisively to any American attempts to disrupt the passage of oil tankers and commercial ships through the strait. Furthermore, Iran issued a stern warning to regional countries, stating that any cooperation with the US in this matter would be considered a declaration of war against Iranian sovereignty. Earlier, Trump had asserted, "We will take the strait, manage it, and receive compensation for it."
