[If the U.S. follows through on its threats, Iran will cut off all oil exports and strike energy and economic infrastructure] According to a report by Golden Finance on July 23, citing Iran's Tasnim News Agency, Iran's Khatam al-Anbiya Central Command issued a statement declaring that the Strait of Hormuz remains in a closed state. Any vessels wishing to pass through the strait must use designated routes and comply with previously announced transit arrangements. The statement emphasized that if the U.S. follows through on its threats, Iran will cut off all oil flows in the Gulf region and target the region's oil, natural gas, electricity, and economic infrastructure. The statement also noted that repeated U.S. threats will only lead to the expansion of war in the region and potentially on a broader scale.
