The decision comes just a day after Iran’s foreign minister temporarily reopened the vital waterway. Reports indicated vessels, including a tanker, were targeted near the strait on Saturday. The IRGC Navy declared no vessel should move from the Persian Gulf or Sea of Oman. A two-week ceasefire remains in effect until April 22.
