Iraqi oil tankers will be permitted to pass through the Strait of Hormuz provided they have no affiliations with the United States or Israel.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that Iranian sources have released information regarding the conditions for maritime transit through the strategic waterway.
According to the reports, Iran will not obstruct the passage of Iraqi tankers as long as full information about the vessel is disclosed, and both the point of departure and the final destination are clearly indicated. Furthermore, it was emphasized that these vessels, or the companies that own them, must have no connections or ties to US President Donald Trump's administration or Israeli entities.
The Strait of Hormuz is one of the world's most vital maritime chokepoints, situated between Oman and Iran. It connects the Persian Gulf with the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea. Approximately one-fifth of the world's total oil consumption passes through this narrow waterway daily, making its security and accessibility a matter of global economic significance. The imposition of such conditions by Tehran reflects the ongoing geopolitical tensions in the region and the strategic importance of monitoring maritime traffic to safeguard national interests.
