GateNews

Gate News Message, April 8. On Wednesday morning local time, the Iranian Navy informed ships anchored near the Strait of Hormuz that they must obtain permission from Iran to continue transiting through the strait. An audio recording shared by a crew member shows that the naval forces of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps broadcast to the ships over the radio: “All vessels must obtain permission from the naval forces of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in order to pass through the strait. Any vessel that attempts to cross without permission will be destroyed.” Earlier, President Trump said he agreed to pause strikes against Iran for two weeks on the condition that the strait could be “fully, immediately, and safely” reopened. The Iranian government has signaled that it intends to continue exerting influence on the waterway. Based on photos and videos shared by the crew member, fighter jets are still circling in the skies over the Persian Gulf, and most vessels remain anchored.
