Trump Suspends US Strikes on Iran as Oman Talks Take New Turn

US President Donald Trump has ordered the US military to halt strikes on Iran, a move that comes as Oman-led diplomatic efforts show signs of progress towards an agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

According to the Axios report, the decision ended a 13-day streak of daily US strikes on Iranian targets. However, US officials say the military remains on high alert and could return to military operations at short notice if the security situation changes.

The move came hours after an Omani delegation arrived in Tehran for talks aimed at reducing tensions and restoring security in the Strait of Hormuz, a vital waterway through which much of the world's oil trade passes. Sources said the talks had shown progress that could pave the way for a new agreement between the parties.GET FULL STORY HERE.
