The details of the agreement still need to be finalized, and it is still unclear what control Iran will retain over the strait.

At the same time, the military advisor to Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, quoted by Iranian agencies, stated that the Islamic Republic has a "legitimate right" to control the strait.

A day earlier, three senior Iranian officials told The New York Times that Iran agreed to a memorandum of understanding providing for the resumption of shipping through the strait. In return, according to them, the US will lift its naval blockade of Iranian ports. The agreement also provides for a cessation of hostilities in all directions, including in Lebanon, the sources added.

According to a source from The Washington Post, it is a framework memorandum of understanding that provides for a 60-day extension of the ceasefire regime while the parties work on a "final deal".
