Iran is preparing to announce a "restricted zone" in the Strait of Hormuz, according to information reported by state broadcaster IRIB. This measure comes in the context of growing tensions between Iran and the United States.
Mohsen Rezaei, a prominent Iranian figure, explained in an interview with the same broadcaster that the purpose of this restricted zone is to increase pressure on the United States. Rezaei did not specify details about when the measure will be implemented or what specific restrictions will be imposed.
On the American side, a former White House official warned of the risk of an "endless war" if tensions continue to escalate. This statement reflects international concern about the consequences of a possible conflict in the strategic Strait of Hormuz region.
The Strait of Hormuz is a sea passage of crucial importance for international oil trade, connecting the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Oman. Any restriction in this area can have a significant impact on global energy markets.
