“GCC chief says Iran charging for ships to pass Strait of Hormuz”

The Al Jazeera article directly attributes the claim to the GCC chief, stating Iran is imposing fees for ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. The Live Mint article corroborates Iran's involvement in Strait of Hormuz navigation but does not contradict the fee claim. Both sources independently support the assertion.
