Iran's IRGC Announces Closure of Strait of Hormuz After Warning Shot
Iran's Revolutionary Guards Navy has announced the closure of the Strait of Hormuz until further notice, according to Iranian state media.
The IRGC said it fired a warning shot at a vessel that allegedly attempted to transit through an unapproved route before ordering the closure of the strategic waterway.
The Strait of Hormuz is one of the world's most important shipping routes for global energy supplies, and the latest development is expected to raise concerns over regional security and international maritime trade.
