Iran confirms Hormuz passage to resume

Tehran - Iran has confirmed the two-week ceasefire announced by US President Donald Trump, Tasnim news agency, which is close to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), reported early on Wednesday.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz would be possible for two weeks, in coordination with Iran's armed forces.
Trump had made reopening the waterway a condition for the ceasefire and had threatened otherwise to target Iran's energy sector as well as infrastructure such as bridges. He had given Tehran a deadline until 0000 GMT.
Trump also said Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif had asked him to refrain from carrying out the threatened attacks.
The United States had received a 10-point proposal from Iran and believed it offered a 'workable basis' for negotiations, Trump wrote on his platform Truth Social.
