CAIRO - Iran will move the management of the strategic Strait of Hormuz into a new phase, its Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei said on Thursday in a statement read out on state TV.

"Iran is not seeking war but will not forfeit its rights and considers all resistance fronts as a unified entity," Khamenei added.
