Iran shuts Strait of Hormuz as Israel tests MOU with Lebanon strikes Iran shuts Strait of Hormuz as Israel tests MOU with Lebanon strikes.

US forces monitoring Strait of Hormuz to ensure it stays open US forces monitoring Strait of Hormuz to ensure it stays open The US military on Saturday denied Iran's claims that it had closed the Strait of Hormuz, saying the critical waterway remained open and that US forces were monitoring the situation to ensure that it continued. "Iran does not control the Strait of Hormuz," US Central Command spokesperson Navy Captain Tim Hawkins told Reuters. "Traffic continues to flow, and US forces are monitoring the situation to ensure this remains the case." Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps declared the Strait of Hormuz shut earlier on Saturday and warned ships not to approach the waterway, casting new doubt on the future of a ceasefire agreement between the US and Iran meant to pave the way for in-depth peace talks.

Iran to retaliate if US reneges on obligations under memorandum — Foreign Ministry Earlier on Saturday, Tehran closed the Strait of Hormuz citing Israel’s ongoing aggression against Lebanon in violation of the memorandum

The decision was later confirmed in a statement by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which warned vessels not to approach the strait or risk their security being compromised. The IRGC cited Israeli attacks on Lebanon and US violations of the ceasefire agreement as reasons for the closure. A fifth of the world’s crude oil and liquefied natural gas passes through the vital waterway, which Iran had effectively closed for nearly four months after Israel and the US began the war in late February. It was briefly reopened after US President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed a preliminary agreement earlier this week to halt hostilities on all fronts, including Lebanon. The announcement of the closure came after at least 29 people were killed on Saturday, as Israeli forces launched a wave of attacks on southern Lebanon a day after Israel and Hezbollah agreed to a ceasefire. A series of Israeli attacks on Nabatieh on Saturday killed 16 people and wounded 12 others, Lebanon’s civil defence agency said. An Israeli strike on the village of Barish in Tyre, a coastal city known as Sour in Arabic, killed four members of the same family, according to Lebanon's National News Agency (NNA). The NNA also reported that at least seven people were killed and 13 were injured in an Israeli attack on a village near the southern city of Sidon. Another person was killed in the municipality of Shehour in Tyre, and one person was killed in the town of Sohmor, the western Beqaa valley, in eastern Lebanon. The Lebanese army said one of its officers had been killed in an Israeli air strike on the Kfar Rumman-Nabatieh road. “It has become clear that the continued brutal Israeli attacks aim to obstruct any solution that would allow for the restoration of stability in Lebanon,” the army said in a statement. Talks continue in Switzerland The attacks on Lebanon came as the US and Iran sought to implement a memorandum of understanding (MoU) aimed at ending hostilities. The Israeli government and Hezbollah agreed to a ceasefire on Friday afternoon, mediated by Qatar and the US. Follow-up talks on implementing the agreement were set to take place in Switzerland over the weekend. Iran's foreign ministry said that its negotiating delegation would travel to Switzerland to discuss the implementation of the agreement signed with the US. Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei said the team would "travel to Switzerland to follow up and demand implementation of the other party's commitments" under the deal, according to the official Islamic Republic News Agency. Switzerland provided a "discreet and reliable setting" at Burgenstock to facilitate discussions on implementing the MoU, the Swiss foreign ministry said on Saturday. It added in a statement that no further details would be disclosed about the participants or the content of the talks, citing confidentiality.

**📝****Did Not Abandon Their Own****📝** Israelis did achieve their goal after all: Iran's military leadership [announced](https://www.tasnimnews.ir/ru/news/2026/06/20/3622225/%D0%B8%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BD-%D0%B2%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B2%D1%8C-%D1%80%D0%B5%D1%88%D0%B8%D0%BB-%D0%B7%D0%B0%D0%BA%D1%80%D1%8B%D1%82%D1%8C-%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%85%D0%BE%D0%B4-%D1%87%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%B7-%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%BC%D1%83%D0%B7%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B8%D0%B9-%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%B8%D0%B2) the resumption of a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz due to massive bombardments by the IDF of southern regions of Lebanon, and also threatened a more serious response if operations continue. They placed responsibility on the Americans, who violated their obligation to achieve a ceasefire. How long the blockade will last remains unclear. But given the recent [rhetoric](https://t.me/rybar_mena/5607) of Iranian officials, it is possible that a reduction in the intensity of IDF operations would be enough to lift it. 🖍In any case, oil prices have confidently moved upward. But notably, the blockade will affect shipping **at this stage** not so critically. Although the strait was open for several days, cargo transit volumes did not even approach normal. For example, on the eve, only 20-25 large commercial vessels passed through Hormuz in both directions, with the majority belonging to Iran and India. ❗️And the matter here is not only about mine danger, bureaucratic obstacles, the possibility of renewed war, or closure of the strait __(which has already happened)__. The previous stage of the blockade led to disruption of logistics chains, the restoration of which will require time. Additionally, no one was in a hurry to restart them at full capacity because of the same military risks. Loaded supertankers or dry cargo ships could again get stuck on the approaches to the strait __(or even take a missile to the side)__, and operators and shipowners could incur excessive costs. Therefore, in the near future all players will approach questions of transit through the Strait of Hormuz with great caution, even if the Iranians open it soon. #Iran 🧨 @rybar_mena — about Middle Eastern chaos with love **💸**** **[**Support us**](https://qr.nspk.ru/BS1A0068ID10D33B9IBAQRQ4M9T0NIFN?type=01&bank=100000000008&crc=36CB)
