An Iranian local outlet reported that after a cease-fire between the United States and Iran took effect and briefly resumed oil tanker traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, passage was halted again due to Israel's cease-fire violation.
On the 8th (local time), Iran's Fars News Agency reported, "At the same time as Israel's airstrikes on Lebanon, the passage of oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz came to a halt."
Earlier that morning, when a two-week cease-fire took effect through a dramatic agreement between the United States and Iran, two oil tankers received authorization from Iranian authorities and passed safely through the strait.
However, as Israel continued what it called the "largest-ever" airstrikes targeting Hezbollah in Lebanon and re-struck Beirut, Iran appeared to tighten control of the strait.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi formally raised the issue of Israel's cease-fire violation in a phone call with Pakistan's Chief of Army Staff Asim Munir, who helped broker the cease-fire.
