00:01Iranian news agency Fars aired footage on Sunday showing what it claimed were vessels
00:06waiting for permission from Tehran to transit through the Strait of Hormuz.
00:12Fars said the strait remained closed and any passage is only possible at the will of Iran's
00:18armed forces. Reports claiming the U.S. and Iran had reached an agreement on the waterway
00:25are false, the agency said, adding that the strait will remain closed as long as the United
00:31States continues its hostile actions. In a series of social media posts on Saturday,
00:38U.S. President Donald Trump said he would order American forces to hold off on new strikes against
00:43Iran, claiming that mediators had agreed a deal to end the war. The agreement would include the
00:50immediate, complete and total opening of the Hormuz Strait, Trump said.
