Iran denies agreeing to reopen Strait of Hormuz

 There is currently no agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, accepted by the Iranian authorities, Iran's semi-official media outlet Fars News Agency reported on Sunday, citing a source close to the nuclear negotiating team and denying an earlier report that claimed that Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi agreed to the mediators' proposal for reopening the waterway.

"As long as the US continues its hostile actions, the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed and the passage of vessels will only be possible via the announced route and with the permission of the [Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps] IRGC Navy," an informed military source cited in the report claimed.

According to the previous report, the vessels would enter the Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz from Iranian territorial waters and exit through Omani territorial waters
