President Donald Trump stated that the Strait of Hormuz is "sort of open right now" and expressed his belief that the war with Iran cannot "go much longer." The remarks come amid ongoing geopolitical tensions and diplomatic efforts following the conflict.

According to reports, the United States, Iran, and Oman are currently close to securing a temporary deal aimed at fully reopening the strategic waterway. Concurrently, the White House addressed internal administration reports on Wednesday, officially refuting claims that Trump and US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had argued regarding a shortage of military munitions resulting from the war.
