Iran's military command says Strait of Hormuz is closed again, citing Israeli attacks in Lebanon

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Iran's joint military command said Saturday that the Strait of Hormuz has been closed again, citing Israeli attacks in Lebanon and U.S. "bad faith" and "its clear breach of its commitments" by failing to end the war.

The statement on state television also warned that "if the aggression continues, subsequent steps have been planned."

Ships had begun transiting the strait after the interim U.S.-Iran agreement was signed earlier in the week.
