Iran declares Strait of Hormuz open as Lebanon ceasefire begins

source: Iran

On 2026-04-17, Iran temporarily reopened the Strait of Hormuz for commercial vessels during a U.S.-brokered truce, according to Reuters. The move followed the Lebanon ceasefire and was framed by Tehran as contingent on the continuation of the truce and the U.S. naval blockade. The chokepoint is a major global energy route, making the action highly market-sensitive.
