Israel Hayom reports, citing Danny Zaken, that Oman has informed the United States that Iran rejected the proposals raised regarding the Strait of Hormuz. In response, the US decided to re-impose sanctions on Iran and renew the naval blockade — a reversal of earlier diplomatic efforts to resolve the standoff. The Zioneer has previously covered the evolving diplomatic situation around the Strait of Hormuz, including the US military blockade of Iranian ports announced in June and subsequent Omani mediation attempts. The rejection of the latest proposals appears to have prompted Washington to return to a more confrontational posture.
