Iran says Hormuz to remain closed until US meets conditions

What the coverage shows

Both outlets centre the standoff over the Strait of Hormuz and Iran’s insistence that reopening depends on US action. Al Jazeera keeps the focus on the diplomatic impasse and says the US is still focused on nuclear talks, while The Independent folds the item into a broader war roundup and is alone in adding Iran’s complaint that Washington is “dragging out the process and dictating one-sided demands,” plus a separate mention of Houthi claims about a Saudi refinery attack.
