"Fully open": Trump confirms Iran restores Hormuz access during Lebanon ceasefire

US President Donald Trump hailed Tehran’s move to reopen maritime access through the Strait of Hormuz, tying it to a new 10-day Lebanon Israel ceasefire. Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi said commercial transit is “completely open” for the truce’s duration, provided vessels follow the coordinated route with Iranian authorities. Trump amplified the announcement on social media and said the ceasefire, set to begin at 5 P.M. EST, followed “excellent” calls with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Lebanese President Joseph Aoun. He added that leaders could meet at the White House within days to build on the pause.
