Iran allows ships from 'friendly nation' India to pass through Strait of Hormuz

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has said that his country has permitted vessels from "friendly" countries, including India, China, Russia, Iraq, and Pakistan, to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. This comes as the Middle East war causes oil supply disruption. Notably, Tehran had earlier told the UN that it may allow "non-hostile" ships to pass through the strait.
