Iran reopens then re-closes Strait of Hormuz amid ongoing US blockade
Iran initially announced Friday that the Strait of Hormuz would be completely open to commercial vessels during the ceasefire period, causing oil prices to drop and markets to rally. However, Iran reversed course Saturday and re-closed the strait after President Trump said the US naval blockade would remain in place, with Iranian forces firing on vessels attempting to pass through the waterway.
