Iran has exempted ships from India, China, Iraq and Qatar from its Strait of Hormuz restrictions, a senior Iranian lawmaker said on Tuesday. “Ships from these countries pass freely, and the Americans do not intercept them either,” Amir Hayat Moqaddam, deputy chairman of the Iranian parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, told the Iranian Students’ News Agency (ISNA). Iran effectively shut the strait early in the US-Israel war on Iran , which began on February 28, and the United States reimposed a naval blockade on Iran’s southern ports in July. So why have these four countries been granted passage through the critical strait, and can their ships really sail freely while the blockade remains in place?
