Live updates: Gulf official says 50-50 chance of Iran-Oman deal on Strait of Hormuz by Friday
📍 The outcome
The coverage moved from a “50‑50 chance” of an Iran‑Oman agreement by early Friday to multiple outlets describing the Hormuz deal as “close,” “agreed in principle,” and nearing completion, with Trump hinting it was coming. However, the latest report from Iran’s Revolutionary Guard said reopening the Strait of Hormuz does not depend on talks with Oman, leaving the outcome unresolved.
The story has since quieted without a definitive conclusion in the coverage.
