Outcome evidence
Iran's cessation of hostilities and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz came packaged with US concessions, not an unconditional stand-down: the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding signed June 17, 2026 committed the US (Paragraph 10) to issue Treasury waivers for export of Iranian crude oil, petroleum products and all associated banking, insurance and transport services, and to lift the US naval blockade. The US rescinded Iran's oil sales license on July 7, 2026, and the ceasefire broke down.
