Iran signals that an agreement with Oman over the Strait of Hormuz is nearing completion, while U.S. President Donald Trump rejects reports that American munitions stockpiles are running low. According to Iran’s foreign ministry and state-linked reporting cited by CBS, Iran and Oman have reached an agreement framework for co-managing aspects of the strategic waterway, with final details still being worked out. NBC reports that Iran and Oman are negotiating the future control arrangements for Hormuz and that Iran does not indicate recent direct talks with the United States.
A related point raised in the CBS reporting is that the prospective arrangement is not a full reopening of the strait. In parallel, Trump publicly denies claims of significant or dwindling U.S. munitions shortages, asserting that the United States can return to sustained combat. The differing reports focus on Iran’s negotiation posture and scope of the Hormuz arrangement, alongside Trump’s response to questions about munitions levels amid the ongoing war.
