Central Command said late Friday that the Strait of Hormuz “remains open for transit” after American forces rebuffed multiple attempted Iranian drone attacks.
“Iran launched multiple one-way attack drones in an attempt to strike commercial ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz.
U.S. forces have downed all of them in recent hours as traffic flow through the strait continues unimpeded,” CENTCOM said on X.
The announcement comes as Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said Friday that "a final, agreed upon text of the peace deal has been reached" between the U.S. and Iran.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi also said Friday that reaching a memorandum of understanding to end the war “has never been closer.”
Vice President JD Vance added that the deal “has the potential to remake the region and lead to lasting peace.”
