⚡️ Iran, Oman agree to open temporary shipping corridor through Strait of Hormuz: Top security official 📌 Tehran, IRNA – Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council Major General Mohsen Rezaei says Iran and Oman have agreed to open a temporary corridor through the Strait of Hormuz for ships to enter and exit. In an exclusive interview with Al-Manar TV on Thursday evening, Major General Rezaei addressed issues concerning the Strait of Hormuz and developments in the confrontations in Lebanon and the broader region. ​ On the Strait of Hormuz, Rezaei said part of the corridor lies in Iran’s waters, while the other part lies in Omani waters, adding that the two sides jointly manage the entry and exit process. He said that this has been determined, and the location of the corridor is clearly defined. “So, if the Americans implement our conditions and act accordingly, and the Strait of Hormuz is reopened following their compliance, ships will pass through this new route—a new route located in the middle of the Strait of Hormuz,” he said. ​ Rezaei linked its full reopening to Washington’s implementation of Iranian conditions, foremost among them working to end the wars in West Asia, particularly in Lebanon and Gaza. ​ He said Iran had prepared a list of conditions to present to the Americans and had, for the time being, allowed a temporary and limited corridor for ships to pass through the center of the strait, with the future of maritime traffic to depend on developments in understandings with Washington. ​ He stressed that the Hormuz issue could not be separated from the broader regional conflict, saying the United States must “prove its seriousness” in implementing the required commitments before any new trust could be established, amid a “deep chasm of mistrust” between the two sides. ​ Rezaei also addressed relations with Türkiye, emphasizing the depth of trade ties between the two countries and ruling out the possibility of Ankara imposing economic pressure on Tehran. He recalled Türkiye’s role as a trade corridor for Iran during the Iran-Iraq War in the 1980s. ​ Rezaei issued a direct threat against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying: “We will send him to hell, and we will prove that his grave mistakes have brought the end of the Israeli entity closer.” He said a “great and sacred anger” was building across the Muslim world against the entity, which he said would one day emerge and translate into action, adding that “it will be different from before.” ​ Rezaei issued a series of firm positions on the United States and Israeli regime, saying Iran does not seek war but is preparing for a new phase should the confrontation resume, stressing that any future war would be “different” from previous ones. ​ He said Iran had approached the various stages of the war incrementally, initially refraining from targeting US bases in the Persian Gulf states before subsequently expanding the scope of its responses to include US sites and bases in other countries. He said this gradual approach was intended to increasingly take humanitarian considerations into account, ensure that Iran’s victories had supporters across the region and the world, and give those victories a higher degree of legitimacy. ​ Rezaei said the shift by the United States toward economic pressure reflected, in his view, the limited effectiveness of military force alone, warning that Tehran would respond to any economic escalation with countermeasures targeting US economic interests in the region. ​ Elsewhere in his remarks, Rezaei paid tribute to the Lebanese people across all sects and s . . . 📲 ​
