Iran (IMNA) - In a statement published on its official X account on Friday, the authority said it was responding to repeated inquiries regarding maritime transit through the strategic waterway.
"Due to the continued aggressive actions of the United States military forces in the region, transit through the Strait of Hormuz is not possible," the PGSA stated.
The authority added that once security conditions improve, all pending applications will be reviewed in the order they were received and the required navigation permits will be issued gradually.
Iran strengthened its control over the Strait of Hormuz following what it described as the unprovoked war of aggression launched by the United States and the Zionist regime against the Islamic Republic on February 28. Since then, Tehran has maintained that all vessels seeking passage through the strategic chokepoint must comply with procedures established by the Iranian authorities.
