Pakistan's Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar said Iran had agreed to let 20 additional Pakistani-flagged vessels transit the Strait of Hormuz at a rate of two a day, calling it a constructive gesture. He addressed his post to Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, envoy Steve Witkoff and Iran's Abbas Araghchi.

Why it matters

Selective passage for friendly flags rewards Pakistan's mediation, but also shows Tehran deciding who uses the strait while overall traffic remains down about 90%.
