· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
An Iranian parliamentary official announced a new plan for maritime traffic management in the Strait of Hormuz. This mechanism will allow commercial vessels and allied countries to use a designated route for which they will pay tolls. Ebrahim Azizi, head of the Parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission, stated that only cooperating vessels will benefit from this system. The Strait of Hormuz is crucial, with about 20% of the world's oil and liquefied natural gas passing through it. Meanwhile, the U.S. has maintained a naval blockade on Iranian ports in response to Tehran's actions in the strait.
