Iran Restores All Traffic For Strait of Hormuz Under Ceasefire Arrangement

Iran has announced that the Strait of Hormuz has been reopened for the passage of commercial vessels for the remaining duration of the ongoing ceasefire in the region.

In an official statement, Iranian authorities said that the maritime corridor will remain open for merchant shipping operating on coordinated routes previously communicated by the country’s Ports and Maritime Organization.

The announcement comes as part of the ceasefire arrangements in the region, aimed at reducing tensions and restoring stability to global shipping lanes passing through one of the world’s most critical energy chokepoints.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi posted on X, “In line with the ceasefire in Lebanon, the passage for all commercial vessels through Strait of Hormuz is declared completely open for the remaining period of ceasefire, on the coordinated route as already announced by Ports and Maritime Organisation of the Islamic Rep. of Iran”.

Iran emphasized that commercial navigation will continue under regulated conditions during the truce period, signaling a temporary easing of restrictions on one of the busiest and most strategically sensitive waterways in the world.

Iran a few moments ago opened the Strait of Hormuz for all commercial vessels until the duration of the recently established ceasefire arrangement between Lebanon and Israel.

Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump also posted on Truth Social recently, “Iran has just announced that the Strait of Iran is fully open and ready for full passage”.
