Iran has announced the Strait of Hormuz remains open for commercial vessels during the current ceasefire period, while threatening closure unless the US lifts its naval blockade of Iranian ports. The US has maintained the blockade, blocking Iran's oil exports, and renewed a sanctions waiver for Russian oil purchases through May 16, 2026. Coverage relies heavily on left-leaning sources, with many specifics unverified.
