> Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps says the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed unless Washington accepts Tehran’s conditions. Iran says the waterway is under its control, while Iran and Oman have discussed a temporary joint shipping corridor, demining and future administration. Iran’s foreign minister also urged the UN to condemn what he called the US campaign of “economic terrorism.”
