The Strait of Hormuz — one of the key arteries of global logistics — is partially resuming operations following a period of escalation in the region. As a result of negotiations mediated by Pakistan, the parties agreed to a two-week ceasefire.

Under the agreement, Iran confirmed its readiness to ensure safe passage for vessels through the strait. However, navigation will be conducted in coordination with Iran’s armed forces, and the strait remains under Iranian control. The reopening is conditional and temporary, with its continuation directly dependent on compliance with the ceasefire, leaving the situation still unstable.
