US-Iran peace deal reached/Trump: will be signed on Friday

The US-Iran deal is now "done," US President Donald Trump announced. "The deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now done. Congratulations to everyone," Trump said in a post on his Truth Social platform.

"I hereby authorize the full, free opening of the Strait of Hormuz and, at the same time, authorize the immediate lifting of the United States naval blockade. Ships of the world, start your engines. Let the oil flow," he concluded.

Trump backed down somewhat in a follow-up tweet, declaring that the crucial waterway would reopen after the planned signing of the agreement on Friday. “This great deal will bring peace and security to the entire region,” he said on Truth Social.

Tehran has said that "an immediate and permanent end to the war and military operations on various fronts, including Lebanon, will be announced starting tonight." "The text of the memorandum of understanding has been finalized and the official signing ceremony for the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding will take place in Switzerland on Friday," the Iranian deputy foreign minister said.

While not mentioning the Strait of Hormuz, the state-run Fars news agency said in a report published minutes after Trump's announcement that a legal framework regulating navigation in Persian Gulf waters would be established in cooperation between Iran and Oman.
