Points
Iranian negotiators will stop exchanging messages with the U.S. through intermediaries in retaliation for ongoing ceasefire violations, Iran’s state-affiliated news outlet Tasnim said.
Tehran will also move to fully block the Strait of Hormuz, Tasnim reported.
Oil prices leapt more than 7% higher following Tasnim’s report.
