Iranian officials have strongly rejected remarks made by US President Donald Trump claiming that the United States has full control over the Strait of Hormuz. On Thursday, Iran's military dismissed the US assertions as "lies," maintaining that the strategic waterway remains fully under Iranian control.
In response to the developments, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned Washington to "be careful" and criticized the claims on X by stating that "fake intelligence" is worse than "fake news," while also asserting that the U.S. has a history of miscalculation.
