Tehran says won't reopen Hormuz until US accepts Iran's conditions

TEHRAN, Aug 9, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Iran's Revolutionary Guards on Sunday said 
they would not reopen the Strait of Hormuz until the United States accepts 
all of Tehran's demands.

"Our current strategy is to maintain this strait until the enemy accepts all 
our conditions," said Guards spokesman Hossein Mohebi, as quoted by state TV, 
adding that "the strait is now actually a theatre of war for us and not just 
a waterway".
