Iran has closed the Strait of Hormuz after accusing Israel of violating a recently declared ceasefire by launching heavy attacks in Lebanon. The closure began Wednesday afternoon, halting all tanker traffic through the strategic waterway. According to Lebanon’s Civil Defense, the Israeli strikes killed at least 254 people and injured 1,165 others. Iran’s semi-official Fars News Agency reported that the decision followed Israel’s breach of ceasefire conditions, a claim also confirmed by the official IRNA news agency.
Earlier on Wednesday morning, U.S. President Donald Trump had announced the establishment of a ceasefire based on Iran’s conditions, allowing two oil tankers to safely pass through the strait. However, after renewed Israeli attacks in Lebanon, Tehran suspended all remaining tanker movements. One of Iran’s key ceasefire terms required halting attacks on the “resistance front,” including Lebanon.
The developments have cast uncertainty over the ceasefire between Iran, the United States, and Israel, only hours after it took effect. Fars News also reported that Iran is finalizing plans for retaliatory measures against Israeli military positions in occupied territories.
