Iran Plans Exclusion Zone Near Strait of Hormuz Amid Tensions
Iran plans to announce a restricted or exclusion zone outside the Strait of Hormuz, according to Mohsen Rezaei. This comes amid escalating tensions and following incidents involving ships in the vital waterway. One report stated Iran claimed to have struck a US vessel in the Strait of Hormuz, a claim the US denied, stating it did not involve an uncrewed US military ship. Another report noted that the Strait of Hormuz remains open only if threats and attacks cease.
