Trump says US blockade of Iran 'in full force' until peace deal

President Donald Trump said the U.S. naval blockade of Iranian ports would remain in place until a peace deal with Tehran, despite Iranian authorities saying they had reopened the Strait of Hormuz.

"The naval blockade will remain in full force and effect as it pertains to Iran, only, until such time as our transaction with Iran is 100% complete," Trump said on his Truth Social network, adding that "this process should go very quickly."
