Story summary

U.S. President Donald Trump posted an image of the Strait of Hormuz labeled “Trump Strait” shortly after Iran proposed opening the waterway within a week if certain conditions were met by the U.S., such as lifting its naval blockade and waiving oil sanctions. The proposal was made during indirect talks between Iran and the U.S. at the United Nations General Assembly in New York, where Abbas Araghchi, Iran's foreign minister, presented a seven-day plan for easing tensions including a ceasefire that involves Lebanon. Meanwhile, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has left New York following the UN gathering, while Saudi Arabia reported intercepting another missile it attributes to Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen.
