AP News in Brief at 12:04 a.m. EDT
Iran has offered to reopen the strategically important Strait of Hormuz and resume nuclear negotiations with the United States if Washington lifts its naval blockade and waives sanctions on Iranian oil exports. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi detailed the proposal to U.N. Security Council reporters on Friday, adding that it would also restart diplomatic talks if the U.S. meets these conditions.
The proposal comes as Iran seeks to ease tensions following recent U.S. missile strikes that targeted Syrian military facilities.
