A social media war between Iran and the US is far from over, with Iranian officials and embassy pages firing back at President Donald Trump's remarks with witty comebacks and memes.

Despite a two-week truce agreed upon by Tehran and Washington, Iranian officials are cryptically responding to Trump's comments, with Parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf saying that the Strait of Hormuz's regulations will be determined by the field, not social media.

Iran's National Security Commission head Ibrahim Azizi also weighed in, stating that the time has come to obey the new maritime system of the Strait of Hormuz, which is determined by the Islamic Republic of Iran, not virtual posts.

Social media posts from several Iran embassies have been stealing the show with their top-tier meme game, including a response from the Iran embassy in Indonesia that dubbed Trump as 'the most cooked US President ever.'

The stalemate between the two nations continues, with Iran reopening the Strait of Hormuz to commercial vessels while imposing conditions, including the payment of 'required tolls' before transiting the strait.
