Iran, Oman near deal on Hormuz shipping routes

Iran and Oman have agreed on vessel route coordinates through the Strait of Hormuz, with a final arrangement 'very close,' according to Iran's foreign minister. However, full reopening hinges on US concessions, including adherence to a June memorandum and lifting sanctions. The IRGC insists the strait's reopening is tied to Iran's conditions, while tensions persist amid a reported missile attack on an Emirati vessel.
