The war with Iran has severely limited the flow of oil through the critical Strait of Hormuz, spiking oil prices. This week at the United Nations, Iran’s president proposed a seven-day plan to reopen the strait, which President Trump rejected. Strait of Hormuz shut until Tehran's conditions met, Ghalibaf says Iran live updates: IRGC will target US ships if fighting resumes, official says Blanche addresses White House press ban, calls access 'a privilege ... not a right'
