"Today is June 23, 2025 and we are bringing you the latest news on Israel and Iran, more specifically the following headline.
Strait of Hormuz at risk following United States strikes."
"As Iran hints at retaliation, the United States urges China to help keep oil flowing through these critical waters.
This is the latest news on Israel and Iran.
Following United States airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites, Iran's parliament has backed a motion to shut the Strait of Hormuz, a key artery for global energy trade."
"I encourage the Chinese government in Beijing to call them about that, because they heavily depend on the Straits of Hormuz for the oil, Marco Rubio said in an interview with Fox News on Sunday.
If they close the Straits, it will be another terrible mistake."
"It's economic suicide for them if they do it.
And we retain options to deal with that, but other countries should be looking at that as well.
It would hurt other countries' economies a lot worse than ours."
"While the final decision rests with Iran's top leadership, the move has triggered warnings from the United States and growing concern in China, whose economy also depends heavily on oil flowing through the Strait.
About one-fifth of the world's total oil consumption passes through the Strait of Hormuz."
