IRGC says Strait of Hormuz closed 'until further notice'
The Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy has temporarily closed the Strait of Hormuz until further notice, citing foreign interference and unauthorized shipping routes. A vessel that ignored warnings and disabled its systems was stopped after warning shots were fired. The closure will remain in effect until U.S. involvement in the region ceases, with threats of forceful responses to further violations.
