Iranian Proxy Houthis: If the US Strikes Power Plants, We Will Block the Strait of Hormuz

BlockBeats News, July 16th - According to Reuters, three sources revealed that Iran has asked Houthi forces in Yemen to be prepared to shut down the Strait of Hormuz if the United States attacks Iran's power infrastructure. This would pose a new major threat to global energy supplies. It is reported that this idea has been discussed within the Iranian leadership and has been conveyed to Iran's Houthi allies. The sources said that the Houthi forces have recently been informed of Tehran's request. The sources did not provide more details on how this request was communicated, nor did they specify whether it was made after President Trump threatened to attack Iran's power infrastructure on Tuesday.
