Oman and Iran suggest temporary Strait of Hormuz link
Muscat and Iran discussed establishing a temporary maritime corridor through the Strait of Hormuz aimed at enhancing safe navigation and regaining control of the strait after 68 incidents over six months resulted in the death of 20 people. The language in the joint statement proposes the creation of a shared waterway and the clearing of mines from the strait, while respecting sovereignty, amid tensions stemming from the recent war in the region. The U.S. President confirmed that the U.S. Navy has removed mines in international waters of the strait, warning Iran against planting new mines. Reports indicate that the majority of the incidents were targeted attacks against vessels.
