Iranian official: US mistakes have caused the world to "lose the Strait of Hormuz".

Ali Fadavi, deputy commander of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, stated that the United States' "foolish actions" have caused the world to "lose the Strait of Hormuz." Fadavi said the US misjudged the situation, failing to achieve any of its goals originally set for three to five days. Many Western analysts have confirmed this. Fadavi stated that the Strait of Hormuz was originally unobstructed, but due to the US's mistakes, the world has "lost the Strait of Hormuz."
