Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy has issued a new order imposing stricter rules on maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz. The order mandates that civilian vessels may only transit with prior coordination and compliance with Iranian regulations, reinforcing Tehran's control over the strategic waterway. This move follows earlier enforcement actions, such as blocking the vessel Bhagya Laxmi, and aligns with Iran's broader 'New Order' framework for the strait. The IRGC's announcement underscores ongoing tensions in the region as Iran asserts its maritime authority amid geopolitical disputes.
