Harare: The Iranian Embassy in Zimbabwe offered a humorous response to US President Donald Trump’s recent ultimatum regarding the Strait of Hormuz, which quickly went viral on social media.

President Trump had warned on Truth Social that Iran would face “devastating military action” if the Strait of Hormuz was not fully reopened within 48 hours. In reply, the Iranian Embassy simply tweeted four words: “We’ve lost the keys.”

The lighthearted retort has been widely shared online, highlighting Iran’s satirical approach to the escalating rhetoric over the strategic Gulf waterway.
