According to Nikkei, citing a source, ships from all countries would be able to navigate freely and safely again after an agreement ends the de facto shutdown.
Nikkei, citing a source, reported that Iran would proceed with clearing mines from the strait during a 30-day period following an agreement. The report added that, after the agreement, ships from all countries would be able to navigate freely and safely, returning conditions to those seen before the de facto shutdown. Mine-clearing is a naval security process used to remove explosive hazards from shipping lanes so commercial traffic can resume.
