Araghchi said maintaining contact with intermediary partners including Pakistan, Russia, and Oman to promote a diplomatic solution. The source noted that previous negotiation rounds had made some progress but were unable to reach a conclusion due to US approaches. An Iranian National Security Council member stated that Iran has not yet used all its available options and that allies in Yemen are prepared to close the Bab el-Mandeb strait, which would impact the US economy. Activity reached its lowest level since the beginning of the conflict, according to the report. Before the conflict, approximately 130-140 ships passed through the Bab el-Mandeb strait daily. Currently, hundreds of ships with over 20,000 crew members of various nationalities are stuck in the Persian Gulf due to the conflict.
