Iranian officials say the Strait of Hormuz remains closed for the past two days.
On April 10 local time, a member of the Iranian Parliament's National Security Committee stated in an interview that the Strait of Hormuz has remained closed for the past two days in response to Israel's violation of the ceasefire agreement and its attacks on Lebanon.
He emphasized that the current passage control in the strait is extremely strict, and even vessels from non-hostile countries cannot obtain transit permits by paying a toll. He stated that as long as the enemy does not pay compensation to Iran, no vessels from hostile countries have the right to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
He also emphasized that the United States has formally recognized Iran's legal right to enrich uranium in its ten preconditions before negotiations. (CCTV reporters Li Jiannan and Wang Zheng)
