The US has lifted its blockade of Iran, and oil tankers are now moving freely through the Strait of Hormuz. This move comes as part of a tentative agreement to end the war between the two countries. Vice President JD Vance announced that he may postpone a trip to Switzerland that had been planned for Friday, which was set to include a ceremonial signing of the deal.

Iranian Supreme Leader Endorses Direct Talks

Hours after the blockade was lifted, Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei endorsed direct negotiations with the US in a statement read by state media. This development has the potential to mark a significant shift in relations between the two countries.
