Iran Offers Strait of Hormuz Access to Nations Cutting Ties With Israel and U.S.

According to BBC, Iran announced that Arab and European nations expelling Israeli and U.S. ambassadors will receive unrestricted passage through the Strait of Hormuz starting tomorrow.

Fact Check
The core claim is supported by multiple independent news organizations (CNN, WION, Ummid) reporting on the same specific IRGC announcement made on March 10, 2026. The condition (expelling ambassadors) and the location (Strait of Hormuz) match the user's statement exactly. While the attribution to the BBC specifically was not directly fetched in full text, the event itself is a matter of public record in the context of the reported 2026 conflict.
