Iran Denies Reports of Agreement to Open Strait of Hormuz

Iran's Fars News Agency, citing sources close to the nuclear negotiation team, denies reports of any agreement to open the Strait of Hormuz. A senior military source stated that as long as the United States continues hostile actions, the Strait will remain closed, with vessels only allowed through pre-designated routes with Revolutionary Guards Navy approval. The denial contradicts earlier reports of an agreement that led to the cancellation of planned U.S. military action.
