Iranians rally against Trump threats as Strait of Hormuz crisis deepens

CROWDS have taken to the streets in Tehran, waving flags and chanting in defiance of threats from U.S. President Donald Trump.

Demonstrators say they are not afraid, expressing support for Iran’s military and leadership amid rising tensions with the United States.

The protests come as a blockade affects the critical Strait of Hormuz—a vital route for global oil shipments.

Whether enforced by the U.S. or Iran, the disruption has effectively slowed maritime traffic, raising concerns about global energy supplies. —Apr 14, 2026
