As part of its negotiations with the United States, Iran is considering a proposal to ensure the safe and unimpeded passage of ships through the Omani section of the Strait of Hormuz, which stipulates that there will be no threat of attack provided an agreement is reached to prevent the resumption of conflict.

Tehran may be prepared to allow ships to use the other side of the narrow strait in Omani waters without interference from Iran. It is unclear whether this also involves clearing any mines in the area or providing guarantees of free passage for all ships, including those linked to Israel, Reuters reports.

This proposal depends on whether Washington is willing to meet Tehran’s demands.

It is not yet clear whether Iran will also agree to clear any mines it may have laid in this stretch of water, or whether free passage will be granted to all ships—even those linked to Israel.
