Iran intends to close "illegal shipping routes" through the Strait of Hormuz, Mohammad Reza Naghdi, adviser to the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), said. Earlier, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said The volume of oil supply through the Strait of Hormuz has almost recovered, reaching the level before the US-Iran conflict. "The Strait of Hormuz is closed, we will also close the illegal routes," Naghdi was quoted as saying by Iran's state television and radio company. He emphasized that the strait will remain closed until Iran's demands are met. At the same time, IRPC representative Hossein Mohebi noted on September 30 that Tehran is trying to block the passage of small ships with rocket attacks, but even if "400-500 barrels of oil" are managed to pass, it still does not mean that Hormuz It is open. On February 28, the United States and Israel began to strike targets in Iran's territory, to which the Iranian side responded with counterstrikes. In mid-June, Tehran and Washington signed a memorandum on the cessation of hostilities, but later exchanged blows again. At the moment, the conflict is still not resolved. Due to the US-Iran conflict, shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has almost stopped. This is the main route for the global supply of oil, petroleum products and liquefied natural gas, resulting in fuel inflation in most countries.
