Iran’s top joint military command said it will not permit US interference in management of the Strait of Hormuz and that any US transit of the strait without Iranian authorization would be met with strong resistance. It warned regional governments that cooperation with the US would be treated as an act of war against Iran and said any escalation would affect all countries in the region, for which it held the US and its allies responsible.
