Tensions between Iran and the United States are escalating once again as Tehran issues a strong warning over the ongoing US naval blockade of its ports.

Iran’s military has declared that Washington will face a “powerful response” if the blockade continues, calling the move illegal and tantamount to piracy. The US, meanwhile, is enforcing strict restrictions on ships entering and leaving Iranian ports as part of its pressure campaign.

The standoff is raising fears of wider conflict, with Iran warning that security across Gulf shipping routes could be at risk if the blockade is not lifted.
