US allows more than a dozen ships through to Iranian ports, lifting blockade under deal, Vance says
Vance said more than 12.5 million barrels moved through the shipping channel as the United States eased restrictions on Iranian port access.
- The U.S. Vice President JD Vance announced that more than a dozen ships have been allowed through to Iranian ports, lifting the blockade under the new deal with Iran and facilitating increased oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz.
- The agreement requires Iran to restrain Hezbollah from attacking Israel, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stating that Israeli forces will remain in southern Lebanon as long as security requires.
- The deal calls for Tehran to dilute its stockpile of highly enriched uranium, immediately waives U.S.-backed sanctions allowing Iran to sell oil freely, and initiates a 60-day negotiation period for a final agreement on Iran’s nuclear program.
- The U.S. is committed to ensuring Iran complies with the deal terms, with the military prepared to act if negotiations fail.
