Iran has issued a sharp response to the United States, saying the Strait of Hormuz cannot be opened until its conditions are accepted. The message was framed as a warning that there is no more time to wait and that delays should not continue.
The statement comes amid a conflict between Iran and the US that has been going on for several months and has not yet reached a conclusion.
According to the report, US bombardment on Iran has caused severe damage, with key areas in the country said to have been destroyed.
The latest remarks indicate that Iran is linking any move to open Hormuz to the acceptance of its terms, while tensions between the two sides remain unresolved.
