Iran's ambassador to New Delhi, Mohammad Fathali, stated that Indian tankers did not pay tolls to Iran for transiting the Strait of Hormuz, despite U.S. President Donald Trump's vow to block vessels making such payments.
Iran's joint military command spokesperson denied U.S. claims that two Navy destroyers transited the Strait of Hormuz, asserting that control over vessel movement lies with Iran's armed forces.
Three supertankers laden with oil have passed through the Strait of Hormuz amid the fragile truce between the United States and Iran, according to shipping data.
Arsenio Dominguez, Secretary-General of the International Maritime Organization, stated that Iran's proposal to charge tolls in the Strait of Hormuz is illegal and should be rejected by the international community.
