Iran has warned that it will take strict action if any military vessels enter the Strait of Hormuz. In a statement issued on Sunday, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said that while the strait remains open to civilian maritime traffic under international law, any military ship approaching the area will be considered a violation of the ceasefire and will face severe measures.

According to the IRGC statement cited by Al Jazeera, Iran emphasized that the Strait of Hormuz is legally open for civilian navigation but not for military presence. The warning underscores Tehran’s sensitivity to foreign military activity near its territorial waters and its intent to enforce restrictions on such movements.

The statement reflects Iran’s continued assertion of control over the strategic waterway and signals potential escalation risks if foreign military forces attempt to operate in the region.
