Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps warned on Sunday that any military ships approaching the Strait of Hormuz will be viewed as violating the two-week ceasefire and would be dealt with “harshly and decisively.”

In a statement carried by Iranian state media, the IRGC said the strait remains under the “smart management” and control of Iran’s navy and that the waterway remains open for non-military vessels, but that military ones would get a “forceful response.”

No word yet on whether U.K. will send minesweepers, as Trump said.

    If Winter comes close and the US is still blockading their fuel? Yes, I think it’s possible.

      Even if France wanted to, it would be suicidal. The US Navy is way too strong. No, it is obviously not possible.
