President Donald Trump has ordered a pause on a US military operation, called 'Project Freedom,' that was meant to guide ships through the Strait of Hormuz. The operation had only been running for two days. Trump cited progress in talks with Iran as the reason for the pause.
The Strait of Hormuz is a narrow waterway where a significant portion of the world's oil passes. Reports also mention a request from Pakistan to pause the operation, though the blockade of the strait continues. The decision marks a shift in the US approach to tensions in the region.
