European Union imposes sanctions on Iran over Strait of Hormuz

The European Union's (EU) foreign policy chief says member states have imposed sanctions on Iran for restricting maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz.

In a post on X, Kaja Kallas said that Iran's actions are unacceptable.

"The Middle East is stuck in a cycle of fragile peace talks and ceasefires. Tehran's drones continue to threaten maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz. Ministers were clear that Iran's actions are unacceptable. In response, EU member states in Brussels today imposed sanctions on the Iranians for restricting maritime traffic in the Strait," Kallas said.

She says this is the first time the EU is implementing its new freedom of navigation sanctions regime.
