Iran warned the council that action would complicate the crisis as member states delayed a vote on armed protection for shipping.

  • On Friday, the UN Security Council postponed its scheduled vote on a draft resolution to authorize 'defensive' force in the Strait of Hormuz after Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned that any 'provocative action' would complicate the situation.
