Iran threatens to create new "no-go zone" in the Strait of Hormuz in the coming days

Diário de Viseu7 September 2026 at 07:45

Iran threatened to create a new "no-go zone" in the Strait of Hormuz in the coming days. This threat comes as a sign of hardening Iranian positions.

Mohsen Rezaï was the figure who announced this measure, indicating that the zone will begin at the US Navy's blockade line and will include sectors of the Gulf.

The creation of this zone represents an escalation in tensions between Iran and the United States, which maintain a significant naval presence in the Strait of Hormuz region, one of the most important maritime routes in the world for oil transportation.
