JAKARTA - The United States military has lifted a blockade on all maritime traffic entering and leaving Iranian ports and coastal areas, in accordance with President Donald Trump's order.
"American forces do not hinder the transit of ships to or from Iranian ports in the Arabian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman," the US Central Command (US CENTCOM) said, launching Al Arabiya (19/6).
The United States and Iran have agreed to a memorandum of understanding for the so-called Islamabad Agreement as part of peace efforts, including a cessation of war on all fronts until the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
The fourth point in the 14-point memorandum of understanding says that after the signing, the US will lift the naval blockade and all obstacles against Iran.
US President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed the note, which was written in English and Farsi, separately on Wednesday.
"Today, US forces lifted the blockade on all maritime traffic entering and leaving Iranian ports and coastal areas, in accordance with the President's directives," US CENTCOM said in a post on X.
"All efforts to enforce the US military blockade have been halted. Our great Navy ships will remain in the region to ensure that all aspects of the agreement are fully respected, obeyed, and applied," said US CENTCOM.
