Iran Warns: Backers of Hormuz Resolution Share Blame for "Aggression"

Iran warned countries co-sponsoring a US-backed resolution on the Strait of Hormuz that they will be held responsible for any "aggression." In a statement, Tehran's UN mission said the United States is "seeking to exploit the number of the so-called co-sponsors of its politically motivated and one-sided draft resolution to manufacture a false image of ‘broad international support.’" The warning escalates tensions over the strategic waterway, a key route for global oil shipments.
