Single source · Strait of Hormuz (approximate) ·
According to Middle East Eye, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei accuses the UK of reversing the roles of aggressor and victim. He responded to Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband saying he discussed ending Iran's aggression, including in the Strait of Hormuz, with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Separately, an anonymous X account relays an IRGC representative, Hajji Sadeghi, saying Iran will never let the enemy cross the Strait of Hormuz; that is a different statement and does not confirm Baqaei's remarks.
