As the U.S. and Israeli war with Iran is set to enter into a fourth week, Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has stated "this war is not our war. We did not start it" and that "the United States must be held accountable."
Meanwhile, the Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed. The international trading corridor is under an Iranian blockade that has sent fuel and energy prices soaring.
Israel and the United States continue daily attacks on Tehran and have killed more than 1,300 Iranians, including several key officials and the former Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. #Heat #Iran #Tehran #Israel #Lebanon #NATO #Trump #War #MiddleEast
