Iran says it has closed the Strait of Hormuz to shipping after Israel truce violation
Iran said it has closed the Strait of Hormuz to shipping transit, citing Israel’s alleged violation of a ceasefire by attacking Lebanon. The move raises fresh uncertainty over negotiations aimed at ending a conflict that has destabilized the Middle East. The immediate impact on vessel traffic was unclear, even as millions of barrels of oil had been moving through the waterway each day before the latest truce.
