Iran has submitted a 10-point proposal aimed at ending the ongoing conflict, as the deadline for a possible new U.S. strike approaches. According to Iranian state media, the proposal was delivered to Washington through Pakistan. It calls for guarantees against future attacks on Iran, an end to Israel’s military operations against Hezbollah in Lebanon, and the lifting of all economic sanctions. In return, Tehran would lift its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
Under the plan, Iran would collect about two million dollars in fees from each vessel passing through the strait, sharing the revenue with Oman to rebuild war-damaged infrastructure. U.S. President Donald Trump described the proposal as important but insufficient, warning that if the strait is not reopened by the set deadline, large-scale airstrikes on key Iranian infrastructure could follow. Analysts noted that attacks on civilian infrastructure could constitute war crimes under international law.
Iranian media emphasized that the proposal seeks a permanent end to hostilities rather than a temporary truce and includes a protocol for safe maritime navigation in the Strait of Hormuz. Observers said that with both sides maintaining hardline positions, a swift resolution remains uncertain.
