Iran warns challenge to Hormuz routes will spike Middle East tensions
Make us preferred on Google Vessels at the Strait of Hormuz, as seen from Musandam, Oman, June 22, 2026. — Reuters Iran strikes US legal defence team targets in Bahrain, Kuwait. Trump states US may 'militarily complete the job'. Each side states the other is violating temporary calm pact.
Iran's top diplomat cautioned Sunday that any attempt to bypass the Strait of Hormuz routes agreed with the United States would "rise tensions" in the Middle East, as the countries traded attacks and accusations of violating a fragile temporary calm.
The exchanges underscored the fragility of a Pakistan-brokered accord aimed at ending a conflict launched by the United States and Israel in February, which disrupted shipping through the strait and rattled global energy markets.
"Any attempt to adopt new or separate arrangements compared to what is underway by the Islamic Republic of Iran will only lead to more complicated situations and delays in the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and will rise the tensions," Iranian External affairs chief Abbas Araghchi stated.
"I urge all parties... to adhere to the memorandum of understanding and not to allow this MoU to deviate from its course."
