The tension is high again in the midst of a truce between -. on , a senior Iranian official warns: “Any American involvement in the Strait of Hormuz would be considered a violation of the ceasefire.”
The Iranian message is clear to the United States and was sent by Ebrahim Azizi, chairman of the national security committee of the Iranian parliament, warning of consequences in case of American involvement.
In a post on Platform X, in English and Persian, he stressed: “Warning: Any US involvement in the new naval regime in the Straits of Hormuz will be considered a violation of the ceasefire.”
⚠ WARNING
Any American interference in the new maritime regime of the Strait of Hormuz will be considered a violation of the ceasefire.
The Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf would not be managed by Trump’s delusional posts!
No one would believe Blame Game scenarios!

The “humanitarian” anti-Trump “Project Freedom”
“Project Freedom” will begin Monday morning, Middle East time, Donald Trump announced in his post on Truth Social, about the stranded ships in the Straits of Hormuz.
According to the American president, the plan concerns ships of countries that are not involved in the war with Iran and the initiative was taken after their appeals.
“This is a humanitarian gesture on the part of the United States, the countries of the Middle East, but, in particular, Iran. “Many of these ships have run out of food and everything else necessary to keep the numerous crews on board in sanitary and safe conditions,” he added.
The entire new Trump post
“Countries from all over the world, almost all of whom are not involved in the Middle East conflict that is unfolding so visibly and violently, in front of everyone’s eyes, have asked the United States to help free their ships, which are stranded in the Strait of Hormuz, over an issue they have absolutely nothing to do with — they are just neutral and innocent bystanders!
For the sake of Iran, the Middle East, and the United States, we have told those countries that we will guide their ships safely out of these prohibited waterways so that they can continue their activities freely and comfortably.
Again, these are ships from areas of the world that are not involved in any way in what is happening in the Middle East right now. I have told my representatives to let them know that we will make every effort to get the ships and their crews safely out of the Straits. In all cases, they said they would not return until the area was safe for navigation and everything else. This process, “Project Freedom”, will begin on Monday morning, Middle Eastern time.
I am fully aware that my representatives are having very positive discussions with Iran and that these discussions could lead to something very positive for everyone. Moving the ships is simply to free people, companies and countries who have done absolutely nothing wrong — they are victims of circumstance.
This is a humanitarian gesture on the part of the United States, the countries of the Middle East, but, in particular, Iran. Many of these ships have run out of food and everything else necessary to keep the numerous crews on board in sanitary and safe conditions. I believe it would go a long way in showing good will on the part of all those who have fought so hard over the last few months.
If, in any way, this humanitarian process is obstructed, that obstruction will, unfortunately, have to be dealt with vigorously. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”.
