Hormuz route opened for India, says Iran FM Araghchi

Iran has allowed vessels from friendly countries—including India, China, Russia, Iraq, and Pakistan—to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, the Iranian Foreign Ministry said Thursday. The move follows UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres’ call to reopen the strait, warning that its prolonged closure is disrupting oil, gas, and fertilizer supplies and worsening global economic and humanitarian impacts.
