Tensions are rising in the Middle East. A plan to manage shipping is being developed by Iran and a Gulf Arab country. The US has been pushing for the waterway to be fully reopened.

In a recent interview, a threat was made against a country in the region. This is not an isolated incident, as a similar threat was made earlier in the year.

Further details are available from NewsChannel 5 WTVF, including statements from Iranian officials and the context of the US demands.
