What happened

Well supportedReported by 33 independent outlets

During a recent UN General Assembly session, the president of Iran addressed Donald Trump, stating that Iran is ready for dialogue but will not accept 'the language of force'. The president of Iran also accused the United States and Israel of hitting civilian sites and claimed that other countries use the Strait of Hormuz while Iran is restricted. The conflict has seen the International Maritime Organization verify 80 attacks on merchant vessels in and around Hormuz, resulting in at least 22 seafarers killed since the conflict began.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The operational status of the Strait of Hormuz directly influences global oil prices and the FED's inflation outlook. The conflict has already caused crude oil prices to rebound, and the ongoing military pressure and geopolitical risk in the region affect the economic viability of nations dependent on the strait, such as Iraq.

Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz, and peace talks involving Donald Trump and Bandar Abbas are currently underway amid ceasefire violations.
