On Thursday evening Supreme National Security Council secretary Rezaei said in an Al‑Manar TV interview that Iran and Oman have agreed to open a temporary shipping corridor through the Strait of Hormuz for vessels to enter and exit. Rezaei said Iran has prepared a list of conditions to submit to the United States and is currently allowing passage via a temporary, limited corridor through the center of the strait; future maritime traffic will hinge on progress toward an understanding with Washington. Pakistan's Express News said the move could clear key obstacles to a Tehran‑Islamabad memorandum of understanding. The announcement follows a week of intensive diplomacy in Tehran, during which it hosted senior delegations from Pakistan, Oman and Qatar.
