Iran-US-Israel War Ceasefire News Live Updates: In a rare crossing, the Marshall Islands-flagged Sarv Shakti, carrying about 45,000 tonnes of liquified petroleum gas (LPG), transited the Strait of Hormuz and moved into the Gulf of Oman after passing Iran’s Larak and Qeshm islands, according to ship-tracking data cited by Bloomberg. The voyage is being described as “the first observed passage by an India-linked tanker” since the blockade tightened traffic through the strategic waterway, reducing crossings to near zero.
What Trump said: US President Donald Trump has said he will “soon” review a fresh proposal from Iran to end the ongoing conflict, even as he expressed doubts that a deal is within reach, signalling continued uncertainty over diplomatic efforts to halt the war. Trump indicated that Washington is examining Tehran’s newly submitted 14-point plan, however, he does not believe an agreement can be struck at this stage.
