Iranian state media is reporting that Iran has closed the Strait of Hormuz in response to Israeli attacks on Lebanon, which have continued today.

Israel has said a ceasefire struck between the U.S. and Iran late yesterday doesn’t include its war with Hezbollah in Lebanon, where it launched its largest co-ordinated strike in the war to date.The Lebanese Health Ministry said 112 people have been killed today.

Most stranded oil and gas tankers remained inside the Persian Gulf.

    Trusting Iran is a bit like trusting Putin, they can open and close this strait 100 times depending on how good their shit was this morning. Then Trump has to react, then they open it up again. Oh no something happened we don’t like, strait closed etc forever.

    Seems like that playbook.

      The westoid brain is fascinating.

      This is the first time the strait has been closed, period. Caused explicitly by your pedophile owners attacking Iran. Who has been nothing but defensive to itself and its allies for the entirety of the current government’s existence.

      Iran has been nothing but a victim acting logically and down right peacefully. Your Pedophile owners are the aggressors.
