Two Routes Or One Boss? IRGC Slams Hormuz Shut ‘Until Further Notice’ As Iran Rejects Oman’s Plan

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has declared the Strait of Hormuz closed "until further notice," warning that no commercial or military vessel will be allowed to transit the strategic waterway without Tehran's approval. The move comes amid soaring tensions with the United States and follows reports that Iranian forces fired a warning shot and halted a vessel in the Strait. Meanwhile, Oman has reportedly proposed creating separate shipping corridors and a new security arrangement to keep maritime traffic moving, but Iran is said to have rejected the plan, insisting on joint control of the entire Strait of Hormuz. As one of the world's most vital energy chokepoints, any disruption in Hormuz could have major implications for global oil markets, shipping and regional security.
