"Urgent The traffic of any ship "to and from" the ports of origin of the allies of the enemies is prohibited from any corridor Revolutionary Guards Public Relations: 

This morning, following the lies of the corrupt American president that the Strait of Hormuz is open, three container ships of different nationalities started to move towards the specified corridor for the traffic of licensed ships, which were turned back with a warning from the IRGC Navy. 

The IRGC Navy announced that the Strait of Hormuz is closed, and any traffic in this strait will be severely dealt with. 

The traffic of any ship "from and to" the ports of the allies and supporters of the Zionist-American enemies to any destination and from any corridor is prohibited."
