Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi agreed overnight to a Qatari-US compromise proposal for reopening the Strait of Hormuz, according to Barak Ravid citing two diplomats familiar with the negotiations. The proposal establishes a dual-routing system: entry via Iranian waters, exit via Omani waters.
The Zioneer reported earlier this morning (09:15) that Araghchi had agreed to the compromise, with Qatari mediators seeking Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) support for the understandings. A subsequent bulletin at 09:20 confirmed the details. The development follows weeks of diplomatic efforts involving Qatari, US, and Omani mediators to resolve the closure of the strategic waterway, which the IRGC formally closed in June. The compromise reportedly influenced President Trump's decision to cancel a planned strike on Iran, though IRGC backing remains a key condition for implementation.
