Strait of Hormuz reopens, for now, as US-Iran memorandum leaves the hard questions for later

A temporary US sanctions suspension and conditional UN inspector access have reopened the Strait of Hormuz to commercial traffic, but Tehran's negotiating team insists the corridor will never return to its pre-war status, and the Lebanon question is nowhere in the text.
