US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that if Iran honors what has been agreed to, the US-Israeli war on Iran could end and the Strait of Hormuz reopen.
“Assuming Iran agrees to give what has been agreed to, which is, perhaps, a big assumption, the already legendary Epic Fury will be at an end, and the highly effective Blockade will allow the Hormuz Strait to be OPEN TO ALL, including Iran.”
“If they don’t agree, the bombing starts, and it will be, sadly, at a much higher level and intensity than it was before,” Trump said in post on Truth Social.
Earlier on Wednesday, the Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ (IRGC) Navy said the safe transit through the Strait of Hormuz will be ensured with US threats coming to an end and new procedures in place, in Iran’s first reaction to the US pausing operations to help stranded ships pass through the strait.
The IRGC’s statement did not specify what the new procedures entailed and thanked owners and captains of ships for respecting Iranian regulations when moving through the waterway.
