Oman and Iran have proposed a temporary shipping lane through the Strait of Hormuz, according to a joint statement released on Tuesday. The agreement aims to resume safe navigation in the key waterway, which has been under Iranian control since the start of the Middle East war on February 28. Under the proposed framework, vessels would need to obtain permission and pay transit fees to use the Strait. The foreign ministers of both nations met in Tehran earlier in the day to discuss the framework for future arrangements.
