A statement from Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said, "The export of oil and gas from the region will be either for everyone or for no one" after the United States reimposed a blockade on Iranian ports on July 14, AP reported on July 15. The statement came after additional U.S.-Iran clashes, including U.S. attacks that widened in geographic scope, reportedly including attacks against military targets in Shiraz, as well as Iranian retaliation against U.S. military sites in Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan.
