Iran wants control over inbound shipping through the Strait of ​Hormuz and visibility over outbound traffic, with the ability to intervene if necessary, under a plan being discussed with Oman to reopen the strategic waterway, a senior ​Iranian source said on Tuesday, Reuters reported. 

The source, ​who is involved in the talks, said this ⁠is "the general idea currently being discussed", and specified ​that the outbound lane would follow a route ​between Iran and Oman, with exit clearance granted through Oman after notifying Iran.
