Iran's Foreign Ministry said on Sunday that the Strait of Hormuz is not blocked and navigation continues in the waterway, with necessary measures being taken due to wartime conditions.

Iran confirmed that it is exercising its legal right to self-defense, including conducting retaliatory strikes against US military bases and infrastructure in the region.

Non-hostile vessels belonging to or associated with other countries, it said, can secure safe passage through the strait in coordination with Iranian authorities, provided they have not participated in or supported aggressive actions against Iran and comply with the announced safety and security regulations.

During a telephone call on Sunday, US President Donald Trump and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer discussed the need to reopen the Strait of Hormuz to stabilize global energy market. Both sides agreed to have a direct meeting in the near future.
