BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 1. A total of 24 ships
passed through the Strait of Hormuz in coordination with the
Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy over the past
24 hours (June 1), the statement of the IRGC Navy says, Trend reports.
According to the statement, the ships that passed were oil
tankers, container ships, and other commercial vessels, and the
safety of the ships was ensured. Four of the ships were oil
tankers.
"Control of the Strait of Hormuz is fully implemented, and
forces from outside the region will have no place in the Persian
Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz," the IRGC said.
Meanwhile, as no tangible progress was made in the nuclear
negotiations between the U.S. and Iran, the situation escalated on
February 28, when the United States and Israel launched military
airstrikes against Iran. In retaliation, Iran initiated missile and
drone strikes targeting Israeli and U.S. installations in the
region. Following these developments, a two-week ceasefire
agreement was brokered on April 7 through Pakistan's mediation.
However, during subsequent talks between the U.S. and Iran in
Islamabad on April 11, no consensus was reached.
