伊朗外交部副部长加里巴巴迪：我们仍处于战争状态，霍尔木兹海峡将保持关闭。

The State Department is preparing to return diplomats to Middle East embassies evacuated before and during the Iran conflict, potentially as soon as this week, and to roll back emergency measures, according to an internal State Department memo obtained by the New York Times. Restorations to higher staffing are planned for U.S. missions in Israel, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan, Oman, Iraq and Kuwait; three U.S. officials confirmed the adjustments. Officials said the redeployment suggests tensions are easing, even as talks with Iran over extending a 60‑day truce have stalled.
