On the 12th, a fierce clash broke out again in the media between the US and Iran over the right of way issue in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran's Persian Gulf Strait Authority issued a notice on the same day announcing that the Strait of Hormuz is currently impassable, and stated that once the situation calms down, it will resume reviewing applications for passage through the strait and issue the necessary permits according to the plan. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy Commander of Iran also reiterated the demand for control of the strait in the media. In response to Iran's statement, the US Central Command posted a series of articles on social platforms refuting it. The US military stressed that Iran does not control the Strait of Hormuz; the strait is still an international waterway. Despite Iran's unprovoked aggression, harassment, and arbitrary statements, the US military has been deployed and prepared at any time to maintain the status quo and ensure that freedom of navigation continues to be guaranteed. Currently, navigation in the strait is still running normally. Meanwhile, US President Trump also stated that the Strait of Hormuz is open. The US and Iran have made tit-for-tat statements about control over the strait and the state of passage, and there is still uncertainty about the direction of the situation.
