Iran, Oman Agree on Coordinates for Safe Corridor in Strait of Hormuz

A bilateral arrangement over Hormuz shipping lanes matters because the strait is the world's key oil chokepoint, and any coordination mechanism between Iran and Oman touches transit risk directly. The significance is less the coordinates themselves than the fact that a registration process with international bodies is being discussed at all, which implies both sides want the corridor to be recognized beyond their own navies. What remains unknown is the corridor's route and the timeline, and whether registration actually proceeds is the open question.
