Summary
The Houthis claimed to have fired a ballistic missile at another Saudi oil tanker. Iran and the US say a Strait of Hormuz deal is close, but one or both would have to back down. Iran has insisted on some measure of control over the strait, saying it will not go back to being an open international waterway, as it was before the war.
Furthermore, There was no immediate US comment on the proposal. The United States, along with Israel, launched the war on Feb. US commanders advised Trump in July that they were running low on some munitions.
In addition, About one fifth of the world’s oil and natural gas passed through the strait, but shipping through the waterway has been reduced to a trickle at best by Iran’s attacks since the start of the war. Iran is seeking fees of between 5 per cent and 7 per cent of the price of cargoes from ships using the strait. The British maritime security firm Ambrey said the ship sustained damage.
Moreover, Crude prices have plunged over the past two days after Trump called off renewed attacks on Iran, citing talks he said could end the conflict.
