[Iranian Official: The Security of the Strait of Hormuz Can Only Be Guaranteed by Iran and Its People] Odaily Planet Daily News – Noulabadi, head of the Iranian Foreign Ministry's Parliamentary and Legal Affairs Department, stated in an interview on the 6th that the United States had previously deployed multiple warships in the Gulf of Oman under the so-called 'Freedom Plan,' attempting to escort vessels and open the Strait of Hormuz passage. However, due to the strong response from Iran's armed forces and stern warnings from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, the U.S. failed to successfully pass through the Strait of Hormuz, and 'the operation has ended in failure.' He emphasized that any military adventurism by the U.S. and its allies in the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf would bring them unbearable consequences and further complicate the situation. He reiterated that Iran's stance has been clearly expressed: the security of the Strait of Hormuz can only be guaranteed by Iran and its people. (CCTV News)
