The action was taken hours after the USA bombed Iranian targets. The Americans allege that Tehran violated the ceasefire agreement signed between the two countries.
This was the first direct confrontation between the USA and Iran since the two countries signed, on the 17th, an initial peace agreement to end the war that began at the end of February.
The text provides for the reopening of Hormuz and establishes a 60-day deadline for negotiations on other issues, including the Iranian nuclear program.
Earlier, the chairman of the National Security Committee of the Iranian Parliament accused the President of the United States, Donald Trump, of not demonstrating "any commitment to the principles of negotiation or the ceasefire."
According to him, the "reckless violation of the ceasefire" by the US will cause Washington to "back down and withdraw." repent."
Until the last update of this report, there was no information about damage to US military structures in the Middle East. The White House also did not comment on the Iranian government's statements.
Iran's Revolutionary Guard promised further action if the United States attacks the country again.

On Friday, the Central Command of the US Armed Forces (Centcom) stated that American aircraft attacked Iranian missile and drone depots, as well as radar equipment on Iran's southern coast.
"The unjustified aggression by Iranian forces against commercial ships clearly violated the ceasefire. Furthermore, Iran's dangerous conduct compromised freedom of navigation, at a time when commercial flow through this vital international trade corridor is increasing," it said in a statement.
Also according to the command, American forces continue to act to ensure the safe passage of commercial vessels through the strait and to ensure the compliance with the agreement signed between Washington and Tehran.
The offensive occurred after Trump accused Iran of attacking ships crossing the Strait of Hormuz.
According to Trump, the Iranian regime launched at least four drones against commercial vessels. One of them hit a cargo ship, while the other three were shot down by American forces.
"Am I going to respond? You'll know soon enough," Trump said at the White House shortly before the attacks.
Iran's Revolutionary Guard said forces repelled an American attack on the island of Sirik, located on the shores of the Strait of Hormuz. The regime did not say whether there were damages or casualties.
UN operation suspended
On Thursday (25), the International Maritime Organization (IMO), a UN agency, suspended an operation aimed at removing hundreds of ships from the Strait of Hormuz after a vessel was attacked in the Gulf of Oman.
The British maritime security company UKMTO reported that a container ship was hit by a projectile while trying to cross the strait, near the port of Dahit, in Oman.
"I was informed today of an attack against a vessel that had crossed the Strait of Hormuz. This vessel was not included in the agency's evacuation framework," said Arsenio Dominguez, secretary-general of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), in a statement.
He added that the decision to suspend the initiative was taken to "reconfirm whether the necessary security guarantees remain in force."
The initiative had begun on Tuesday (23) and allowed vessels to leave the region via routes supervised by the United States. Preliminary data from the agency indicated that 57 ships, with around 1,100 crew members, had crossed the strait during the operation.
Authorities have not yet confirmed who was responsible for the attacks or the severity of the damage.
Also on Thursday, the Persian Gulf Strait Authority, created by Iran to administer the region, stated that vessels that use unauthorized routes will not be guaranteed safe passage.
