What happened: Ali Akbar Razaii, secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, said the adversary has been defeated in a "military war" and will be defeated in an "economic war," and that the Strait of Hormuz will not be opened by threat or pressure and Iran will not retreat. Attribution and details: The statements appeared in messages Razaii posted on social media. He also said predictions by “Basant” are unreliable. Uncertainties and exact quotes: Razaii described the foreign side as having lost militarily and asserted it will also fail economically; he said the Hormuz Strait will not be reopened by coercion and that Iran will not back down.
