Thailand reaches deal with Iran for vessels to transit Hormuz Strait
Thailand has reached an agreement with Iran to allow Thai oil vessels safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, the Southeast Asian nation's Prime Minister said.
'An agreement has been reached to allow Thai oil tankers to transit safely through the Strait of Hormuz,' Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said at a press conference, adding the development would alleviate concerns over fuel imports.
On February 28, the United States and Israel attacked Iran after weeks of military buildup and threats from President Trump. Large-scale strikes targeted Iranian military assets and the Islamic Republic’s top leadership, killing Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Tehran’s Assembly of Experts appointed Ali Khamenei’s son, Mojtaba Khamenei, to succeed him.
Iran has retaliated by targeting U.S. military facilities in the region, Israel, and energy and civilian infrastructure in the Gulf states.
Israel has also stepped up its air strikes in Lebanon after Hezbollah fired rockets into Israel in support of Iran.
