Iran threatens to cut off major vital seaways in response to Trump's renewed blockade
After closing the Strait of Hormuz, Tehran on Wednesday threatened to shut additional energy export routes including the Bab el-Mandeb gateway to the Red Sea, a major global shipping route through which Saudi Arabia exports its oil.
The warning comes after the US launched a fresh round of strikes on Iran.
