Iran State Media is reporting Tehran has again closed the Strait of Hormuz. It comes less than 24 hours after agreeing to fully reopen the waterway for the duration of its ceasefire with the United States. Vessels in the Strait of Hormuz say they have been fired on by Iranian gunboats just hours after the waterway was closed. A message from Iran's supreme leader says the Iranian navy is ready to inflict new bitter defeats on its enemies.
