Vessels belonging to Arab or European countries that expel United States and Israeli ambassadors from their territories will be permitted to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
The Operative Information Center-OMM reports that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) issued a statement regarding these new maritime regulations. According to the announcement, this "green light" is specifically reserved for nations taking a diplomatic stand against the US and Israel amid the ongoing regional escalation.
Maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz has faced significant disruptions and near-paralysis since the intensification of military tensions involving the US, Israel, and Iran. As one of the world's most vital energy transit points, the strait serves as a primary artery for global oil supplies, connecting the Persian Gulf with the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea. The Republic of Azerbaijan, while maintaining its own strategic maritime interests, closely monitors regional developments that impact global energy security and international shipping routes.
