Iranian Parliament Deputy Speaker Ali Nikzad emphasized in an interview conducted on the 2nd (local time) along the coast of the Strait of Hormuz, "The Strait of Hormuz will not return to its pre-war state, and Iran will never back down an inch from the Strait of Hormuz." Deputy Speaker Nikzad stated that the parliament plans to approve the 'Strait of Hormuz Management Law', proposing key provisions such as △permanent prohibition of Israeli vessels from passing through the waterway, △mandating war reparations payments for 'hostile nation' vessels, and △requiring other vessels to obtain prior permission from Iran.
