Israel Strikes Iranian Military Targets; Tehran Threatens to Close Strait of Hormuz

Iranian officials stated that the United States would bear responsibility for consequences if the Strait of Hormuz is fully closed to oil and gas exports. The warning specified that closure would follow continued "mischief" in the waterway.

The statement named both oil and gas shipments as affected cargo.

It did not provide a timeline or list specific triggers beyond the reference to ongoing actions.

Two separate accounts carried nearly identical wording of the warning. No additional operational steps or military movements were described in the statements. >"US responsible for consequences of full Strait of Hormuz closure to oil, gas exports if mischief persists." The phrasing appeared in both accounts without further elaboration on enforcement measures.
