  "account": "President Trump suggested a deal on the Strait of Hormuz could be reached as early as Wednesday or Thursday during ongoing talks with Iran and Oman, according to a report by Axios. The proposed agreement would allow ships to traverse the Persian Gulf via an Iranian-controlled route and exit through a route overseen by Oman, with service fees charged for security and maritime environment preservation. The U.S. recently used nearly all of its long-range precision missiles during the war with Iran, raising concerns about dwindling stockpiles of defensive interceptors.",
