States complying with US sanctions will face Gulf transit difficulties —Iranian army

DUBAI - Vessels from countries that comply with US sanctions against Iran will, from now, face difficulties crossing the Strait of Hormuz, Iranian Army Spokesperson Mohammad Akraminia said on Sunday according to semi-official Tasnim news agency.

Iranian lawmakers have said they are drafting a bill to formalize Iran's management of the Strait of Hormuz, with clauses including forbidding passage to vessels of "hostile states." —Reuters
