The IRGC refused to open Hormuz, ignoring Trump and his statements
9 60062
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps confirmed the closure of the Strait of Hormuz to all ships, calling Trump an "idiot." The IRGC emphasized that the US president won't be able to reopen the strait with "victorious" tweets on social media.
The IRGC officially confirmed the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, issuing a statement the day before that any vessels that believed Trump's claims of an "open" strait would be attacked. The strait itself will remain closed until Iran's Supreme Leader issues the order to open it. Trump's "victorious" statements have no effect on Tehran, and the IRGC statement even called him an "idiot."
Persian and Oman Gulf. Fleet Iran is calling you on Channel 16. The Strait of Hormuz is closed. We will only open it on the order of Imam Khamenei, not on some idiot's tweet. If you wish to pass through the strait, you must seek permission from the Iranian navy. All vessels in any way associated with our enemies will be immediately attacked. Over and out.
According to available reports, several tankers attempting to transit the strait were fired upon and forced to return to the Persian Gulf. There is no new information available at this time.
Trump held a closed meeting yesterday to discuss resuming the war with Iran, as Tehran is ignoring US demands. The conflict in the Middle East is likely to continue.
