The USA and Iran have a deal. It shall end the war. Therefore, Iran opens the Strait of Hormuz again. The Strait of Hormuz is a water way. It is important for trade. Ships with oil and gas sail there.
On Thursday, the first cargo ships sailed through the strait. Until the afternoon, there were 8 ships. 3 oil tankers from Saudi-Arabia were there. A French ship with liquid gas was also there. It brings gas from Qatar to Pakistan.
In the past, 120 ships sailed there every day. Now there are far fewer ships. German ship owners are still careful. They wait for more safety. There could be mines in the water. Mines are dangerous bombs under water.
There are more talks in the next 60 days. Iran wants fees for the trip in the future. This means: Ships must pay money to Iran. The USA wants to end the see-blockade against Iran. Then Iran can sell oil again.
