Less than 24 hours after it was reopened, the Strait of Hormuz is CLOSED again. Iran announced that the Strait would "return to its previous state" after the U.S refused to lift its blockade of Iran's ports.
According to Sky News and the Daily Mail, Iranian gunboats have opened fire on SEVERAL VESSELS trying to get through the strait. AT least two vessels have reportedly been hit.
Ships in the Persian Gulf began to turn around -again - as they approached the Strait Hormuz Saturday morning.
(HT REMARK: See, after the markets closed on Friday. The lies served their purposes. Stocks are at all time highs and the 401(k) crowd is all in.)

The ceasefire with Iran expires on Wednesday and Trump told reporters last night (Friday night) that it may not be extended. “Maybe I won’t extend it,” Trump said. He also said that the naval blockade of Iranian ports “is going to remain.” “Maybe I won’t extend it. So, you have a blockade, and unfortunately we’ll have to start dropping bombs again,” he said.

Following Iran's announcement that the Strait of Hormuz is closed, Britain and France suspended their task force to open the Strait of Hormuz. (HT REMARK: So the Europeans are only willing to "open the Strait" with their Military if the Strait is already open. Such weaklings.)
