“Iran-konflik | IRW: Straat van Hormoes bly toe weens VSA-skending van skietstilstand”
DISPUTED
The claim states the Strait of Hormuz remains open due to a US ceasefire violation. Evidence from Al Jazeera suggests Iran stated the strait will remain *closed* due to US ceasefire violations. Conversely, another web search result mentions traffic remaining at an *effective standstill* after Iran conditionally lifted a blockade amid a fragile ceasefire. The evidence presents conflicting statuses (open vs. closed/standstill) based on the alleged cause (US violation).
