Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy has warned ships not to pass through the Strait of Hormuz using routes it has not approved, saying any violations would prompt a “decisive response”.
“We warn all vessels that intend to transit the strait, the only safe route… is the corridor previously announced by Iran,” the IRGC Navy said in a statement carried by Fars news agency.
“The diversion of vessels to other routes is unsafe and will face a decisive response from the IRGC Navy.”
