Several outlets report that U.S. President Donald Trump announces a new Iran-U.S. ceasefire arrangement and urges restoration of oil shipping through the Strait. According to the reports, Trump posts on Truth Social that a deal has been reached and uses language calling on oil tankers to resume movement. One account quotes Trump writing “Ships of the World, start your engines,” while another highlights his call to “let the oil flow” alongside the announcement of a ceasefire. The Independent also reports that Trump claims the Strait is reopened and that shipping through it would be “toll free,” as additional details emerge. Salon similarly focuses on the president’s announcement and his directive to oil tankers to restart operations. Across both accounts, the central elements are Trump’s public announcement of an Iran-U.S. ceasefire, his message to the shipping industry to resume oil transport, and the suggestion that passage through the Strait is being lifted or eased. The specific terms of the ceasefire and verification details are not included in the excerpts provided.
