First Ship Navigates Strait of Hormuz Under New US-Iran Ceasefire

The first commercial vessel has transited the Strait of Hormuz with Iran's explicit permission following the implementation of a two-week truce between the United States and Iran, according to Iranian media reports. The semi-official Mehr News Agency confirmed the passage, which was also tracked by maritime services, marking a tentative de-escalation in a critical global shipping chokepoint. This development follows statements from US President Donald Trump and Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi outlining the ceasefire's conditions, which hinge on the safe reopening of the strait and a halt to offensive operations.
