First Container Ship Arrives at Iran's Shahid Rajaee Port Following US Naval Blockade Lift

Iranian state television reported the arrival of the first container ship at Shahid Rajaee Port in Bandar Abbas, located in Hormozgan Province in southern Iran, following the removal of the US naval blockade on Iranian ports.

The Iranian government’s broadcasting authority issued a statement confirming, "The first container ship has arrived at Shahid Rajaee Port."

On the night of June 18, Iran and the United States signed a memorandum of understanding remotely, which stipulates the end of the military conflict that began on February 28.

This memorandum also outlines the timelines for the United States to lift its naval blockade and for Iran to regain navigation rights through the Strait of Hormuz.

Furthermore, Iran commits to refraining from possessing nuclear weapons, with the nuclear program issue to be resolved through a separate agreement. Both parties will conduct talks within 60 days concerning this matter, with the outcome for Tehran being the lifting of sanctions imposed against it.
