Strait of Hormuz won't reopen 'until Lebanon ceasefire holds and oil waivers issued' Strait of Hormuz won't reopen 'until Lebanon ceasefire holds and oil waivers issued' Iran's Tasnim news agency, citing a source close to Tehran's negotiating team, reported on Sunday that the Strait of Hormuz would not be reopened as long as a ceasefire in Lebanon was not respected. The source said the waterway would also remain closed until waivers allowing the sale of Iranian oil were issued. Iran announced that it had once again closed the strait a day earlier over Israeli attacks on southern Lebanon. A fifth of the world’s crude oil and liquefied natural gas passes through the vital waterway, which Iran had effectively closed for nearly four months after Israel and the US began the war in late February. It was briefly reopened after US President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed a preliminary agreement earlier this week to halt hostilities on all fronts, including Lebanon.

Lebanon conservation pioneer dies from injuries after Israeli strike Lebanon conservation pioneer dies from injuries after Israeli strike Tributes have been paid to Lebanese marine ecologist Mona Khalil, who died on Friday from injuries sustained in an Israeli strike on her home in the southern village of al-Mansouri. Khalil was widely known for leading efforts to protect one of Lebanon's most important nesting sites for endangered sea turtles and for her environmental work along the country's coastline. The Society for the Protection of Nature in Lebanon described Khalil as "one of Lebanon's most dedicated environmental defenders and a tireless champion of sea turtle conservation". Environmental group Green Southerners said her conservation programme at the Orange House "inspired generations of Lebanese to value and protect their natural heritage and coastal ecosystems". Speaking to AFP, Julien Jreissati of Greenpeace Middle East and North Africa said her death was a loss felt not only by her family but also "for the environmental movement in Lebanon and the region". It is with profound sadness that Green Southerners mourns the passing of Mona Khalil, a pioneering environmental defender who died from injuries sustained in an Israeli strike on her home on the Mansouri coast. pic.twitter.com/X7rnmreLEt — Green Southerners الجنوبيون الخضر (@GreenSoutherns) June 19, 2026
