After Israeli attacks, Iran considers blocking the Strait of Hormuz

Iran is considering closing the Strait of Hormuz in response to Israeli military attacks.

Iranian state-run Press TV quoted Iranian parliamentarian Esmaeil Kowsari as saying Tehran was considering the move, which could have significant consequences for global oil supplies.

"Iran is considering blocking the Strait of Hormuz in the Persian Gulf, through which more than 17 million barrels of oil pass every day," Kowsari said.

The comments come a day after Israel launched a series of strikes against Iranian territory, targeting nuclear and missile facilities, killing senior military figures and scientists.

The wave of attacks has continued and has resulted in the deaths of at least 78 people and 320 others injured.

Iran in retaliation launched ballistic missiles at several locations within

Israel, resulting in the deaths of at least three people and the injury of more than 170 others.
