The parties that agreed on a truce in the Middle East violated the agreement and once again demonstrated the success of force of arms. This was announced on Wednesday, April 8, by Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council.

Thus, the politician commented on his previous message, in which he expressed doubt about the success of the current ceasefire.

"So here it is: The Strait of Hormuz is closed again. The weapon is working," Medvedev wrote on the social network X (ex. Twitter).
