Iran claims to have agreed with Oman on the distribution of revenue in the Strait, and the United States intervention process has been delayed

On 26 August, according to the Iranian Revolutionary Guards' official news site Sepah News, the spokesman for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, Hossein Mohbi, stated with regard to the latest situation in the Strait of Hormuz: “The Strait of Hormuz is now under our control and there is no enemy warship in the Gulf”. He added that “from the point of view of military and territorial jurisdiction, no vessel can pass through this waterway without Iran's permission and under Iran's administration”. “The Strait of Hormuz belongs to Iran and Oman, which is separate from us. About a month ago, we entered into negotiations with Oman and achieved a mutually acceptable outcome.” During these negotiations, some agreements were reached between the two sides on the respective shares of the water in the Straits and on the share of income from Iran and Oman.” “The United States is interfering in this process, which has led to the postponement of the relevant work process.” He stressed that “if the United States does not accept our terms, the Strait of Hormuz will never be open”
