I request the following sentence be removed from the lead's 2nd paragraph:

"and subsequently annexing the Strait of Hormuz"

This sentence was recently added but is completely unsourced, not in the body, and POV pushing. Although Iran has claimed sovereignty over the strait, there are no sources claiming that it has actually successfully annexed it during the ongoing war or even attempted officially to do so. The linked page on sovereignty in the text which is a new page created by the same user also doesn't even support this wording of annexation. Current talks between Iran and Oman are about shared administration as well, not annexation. ~2026-43592-81 (talk) 07:20, 7 August 2026 (UTC)reply

Section: Ideology Requested edit: Replace the current wording with the proposed sourced wording below. Reason: The proposed wording provides a more neutral description of the movement's stated and reported political themes and adds citations for the claims. The change is intended to improve accuracy and sourcing, not to alter the article's neutral point of view. Author In India (talk) 21:28, 9 August 2026 (UTC)reply
