2 Mar 2026
A commander in Irans Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has said the Strait of Hormuz is closed and warned that any vessel attempting to pass through will be attacked, according to Iranian state media.
The strait is closed. If anyone tries to pass, the heroes of the Revolutionary Guard and the regular navy will set those ships ablaze, Ebrahim Jabari, a senior adviser to the IRGCs commander-in-chief, said on Monday.
Tehran has targeted infrastructure critical to the worlds energy production as part of its retaliation for the Israeli and US bombing campaign that began on Saturday and killed Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and other senior officials.
We will also attack oil pipelines and will not allow a single drop of oil to leave the region. Oil price will reach $200 in the coming days, Jabbari said in a post on the IRGCs Telegram channel.

Not the other way around.
China landed a plane in Tehran, outside of that Iran is basically closed. The US controls the sky and the sea.
Russia has its own oil. Iran has its own oil. The US is not going to allow further weapon resupplies to Iran.

Not saying that's likely, but if they did, what do you imagine happens at that point, just curious?
