US President Donald Trump warned Iran against 'blackmailing' the US by closing the Strait of Hormuz. Iran had reimposed restrictions on the waterway after the US said its closure would not end the US blockade. Two Indian vessels reversed course in the Strait following reports of gunfire from Iran's Revolutionary Guard. The vessels included an Indian-flagged super tanker carrying 2 million barrels of Iraqi oil. Iran's joint military command said it would continue to block transit through the strait as long as the US blockade of Iranian ports remained in effect. The US blockade will remain in full force until Tehran reaches a deal with the US, including on its nuclear programme.
