Iran's ambassador to the UN has labeled the US blockade around its ports as a serious violation of sovereignty and international law. The blockade, initiated by the US, aims to compel Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical passage for global oil and gas. President Trump has threatened to destroy any Iranian warships approaching the blockade. This action follows a ceasefire agreement between the US and Iran, which is now at risk due to escalating tensions and threats from Iran against Gulf ports.
