Any US ‘interference’ in Hormuz would be ceasefire violation, Iran official claims
A senior Iranian official warns that Tehran would consider any US attempt to interfere in the Strait of Hormuz a breach of the ceasefire.
“Any American interference in the new maritime regime of the Strait of Hormuz will be considered a violation of the ceasefire,” Ebrahim Azizi, head of the national security commission in Iran’s parliament, posts on X.
The comment comes after US President Donald Trump announced a plan for American forces to escort ships through the blocked Strait of Hormuz beginning Monday.
