The blockade will be enforced impartially against vessels of all nations entering or departing Iranian ports and coastal areas\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The head of Iran\u2019s navy called the US blockade threat \u201cridiculous and funny\u201d, according to state TV.<\/p>\n<p>President Trump also repeated earlier threats to bomb Iran\u2019s power plants, water treatment facilities and bridges, if Tehran does not agree to give up its nuclear weapons programme.<\/p>\n<p>It follows the collapse of high level peace talks between the US and Iran in Pakistan.   The US vice president JD Vance, who led the US team, said Iran had refused to agree that it could never develop nuclear weapons. <\/p>\n<p>Jane Hill presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Joe Inwood and Lyse Doucet.<\/p>\n<p>Subscribe to our channel here: https:\/\/bbc.in\/bbcnews<\/p>\n<p>For the latest news download the BBC News app or visit BBC.com\/news<\/p>\n<p>#BBCNews<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Trump orders US blockade of strait of Hormuz after failed peace talks with Iran | BBC News Donald&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8151,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[9111,402,71,176,234,2352,4392,177,236,2252,11990,11991,5358,220,11995,11677,226,11675,11994,11209,5950,184,225,110,221,83,38,9882,39,11415,11989,187,4177,6422,200,31,212,213,19,1471,4605,8047,11992,179,5949,181,11993,218,32,209,224,294,6199,219,48,11680,197,8502,11988,11676,49,8042,229,4014,9366,235],"class_list":{"0":"post-8150","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-bbc-news","8":"tag-agreement","9":"tag-airstrikes","10":"tag-attack","11":"tag-bbc","12":"tag-bbc-news","13":"tag-blockade","14":"tag-bomb","15":"tag-breaking","16":"tag-breaking-news","17":"tag-centcom","18":"tag-central","19":"tag-command","20":"tag-crisis","21":"tag-danger","22":"tag-deepens","23":"tag-defeat","24":"tag-economy","25":"tag-enrichment","26":"tag-escalates","27":"tag-failed","28":"tag-fighting","29":"tag-gas","30":"tag-hormuz","31":"tag-inflation","32":"tag-invade","33":"tag-invasion","34":"tag-iran","35":"tag-islamabad","36":"tag-israel","37":"tag-jd","38":"tag-lane","39":"tag-marines","40":"tag-navy","41":"tag-negotiations","42":"tag-netanyahu","43":"tag-news","44":"tag-nuclear","45":"tag-nuke","46":"tag-oil","47":"tag-pakistan","48":"tag-peace","49":"tag-plants","50":"tag-ports","51":"tag-power","52":"tag-president","53":"tag-prices","54":"tag-ridiculous","55":"tag-risk","56":"tag-shipping","57":"tag-ships","58":"tag-strait","59":"tag-strike","60":"tag-talks","61":"tag-threat","62":"tag-trump","63":"tag-uranium","64":"tag-us","65":"tag-vance","66":"tag-vice","67":"tag-victory","68":"tag-war","69":"tag-warning","70":"tag-warship","71":"tag-water","72":"tag-weapon","73":"tag-world-news"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8150","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8150"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8150\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8151"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8150"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8150"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8150"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
