Iran and Oman have agreed on a framework for managing the Strait of Hormuz, with a final text expected soon, Iranian officials said. The proposed deal would give Iran control over vessel entry and joint oversight with Oman on exit, according to reports. Iran seeks to bar US and Israeli ships and demand compensation from hostile countries. A US official said Washington would lift its naval blockade once an agreement ensuring unhindered commercial shipping is announced. President Trump said talks are “moving along good”. The strait’s reopening could resume energy flows throttled since US-Israel attacks on Iran in February.
