India, April 9 -- Iran said Thursday that transit of vessels through the Strait of Hormuz has slowed down considerably, and came to a complete halt later alleging that Israel violated the US-Iran ceasefire in Lebanon.
In an interview to BBC, Iran's deputy foreign minister Saeed Khatibzadeh said the Iranian foreign ministry sent a message to the Oval Office Wednesday night, saying the Israeli attacks on Lebanon earlier in the day were a "grave violation" of the ceasefire agreement.
