Iran closes Strait of Hormuz over Israeli attacks on Lebanon

Iran's military says it is closing the Strait of Hormuz due to continued Israeli attacks on Lebanon.

It also accuses the US and Israel of violating the ceasefire agreement.

Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy says the Strait of Hormuz is closed to all ships, citing ceasefire violations by the US and Israel.

The Navy also issued a stern warning to all ships: “Do not approach the Strait of Hormuz; otherwise, your safety will be at risk.”

Earlier, US Vice President JD Vance told Fox News that the Strait of Hormuz remains fully open, despite Iran saying otherwise.

"We're not seeing any evidence that the Iranians are closing the Strait of Hormuz yet," Vance says.

“In fact, yesterday we took 16 million barrels of oil out of the Strait of Hormuz,” Vance says. “So you see those ships moving.”

Lebanon's civil defense agency says Israeli strikes in the southern Nabatieh district have killed 16 people and wounded 12 others, a day after the latest announcement of an Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire.

The agency said rescue teams had transported "16 dead and 12 wounded" to hospital, as Israeli strikes continued to hit the area on Saturday.

Civil defense personnel have been working "since the early hours of the morning" in Nabatieh in response to ongoing Israeli attacks targeting the area.

US President Donald Trump's personal envoy and Iran's foreign minister have left for Switzerland for talks, Axios said, although deadly Israeli attacks in Lebanon on Saturday could test a new ceasefire key to ending the Iran war.

The talks, led by Steve Witkoff and Abbas Araqchi, mark an effort to transform this week's 14-point interim pact into a lasting regional agreement to end the war that the United States and Israel launched on February 28.

But just hours after a ceasefire took effect in Lebanon between Israel and the Iran-backed Hezbollah militant group, Israeli airstrikes and drone strikes killed at least five people in the south on Saturday, Lebanese state media said.

A cessation of fighting in Lebanon is a condition for the start of 60 days of U.S.-Iran talks to resolve disagreements over Iran's nuclear program and other difficult issues needed to create a more lasting agreement, critical for reopening the Strait of Hormuz and stabilizing global oil supplies.
