The US and Iran have agreed to temporarily suspend current mutual attacks and hold talks on June 30 in Doha, the capital of Qatar, to resolve the dispute over the Strait of Hormuz, Xinhua News Agency reported.
According to this ceasefire agreement, ships can move freely as technical negotiations are scheduled to continue.
The June 30 negotiations were initially planned to be held in Switzerland and focused on Iran's nuclear program. However, escalating tensions in the Strait of Hormuz have led the negotiations to Doha, shifting the focus to maritime security on this strategic waterway route.
In negotiations in Switzerland a week ago, the US delegation agreed with Iran to establish a "hotline" between the US military and the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to coordinate traffic in the Strait of Hormuz.
However, as of June 27, this hotline has not yet been operational.
The US launched attacks on Iranian targets on June 26 and 27 accusing "Iran's continuous aggression against commercial shipping" in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran responded by attacking US military positions in the region.
