Iran has proposed a plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a waterway central to global oil supplies, but reports indicate that US President Donald Trump has rejected the proposal.
As of Saturday, the United States had not issued a public response to Iran's offer, even as media reports pointed to Trump's rejection behind the scenes.
The strait remains at the center of the standoff between Washington and Tehran, a conflict that has reached a near seven-month stalemate despite periodic diplomatic efforts.
New mediation efforts took place this week in an attempt to break the impasse, though the reported rejection of Iran's Hormuz proposal suggests the path to a resolution remains uncertain.
