U.S. Central Command announced on Thursday that U.S. naval forces have lifted the blockade on ships entering and exiting Iranian ports and coastal areas. The move is part of a ceasefire agreement between the United States and Iran, according to an official statement.
The blockade was initially imposed as part of U.S. sanctions and military pressure. The lifting is one of several conditions outlined in the agreement, which aims to de-escalate tensions in the region.
No further details on the broader ceasefire terms were immediately available. The announcement marks a significant shift in U.S.-Iran relations.
