The claims Via News extracted from this document. We point to the source; we don't replace it.

    60% confidence

  • Iran had offered a 'present' as a show of good faith in talks related to energy flows through the strait

    60% confidence

    60% confidence

  • The US sent Iran a 15-point plan to end the conflict

    60% confidence

  • Foreign ships are allowed to pass through Strait of Hormuz as long as they aren't supporting acts of aggression against Iran and follow Iranian regulations

    60% confidence

  • The pullback in oil prices reflects the war-risk premium being cut, but this is unlikely to be seen as an all-clear yet because Iran has publicly denied direct talks while military activity continues

    60% confidence

  • Washington was seeking a one-month ceasefire for talks with Iran

    60% confidence
