Iran, Oman to Meet in Muscat to formalize Shipping Route Through Strait of Hormuz

A senior Iranian government official and a Gulf diplomat told reporters that officials from Iran and Oman will meet in the capital, Muscat, on Monday. The pair plans to sign an agreement establishing an Iran-Oman shipping route through the Strait of Hormuz. The official stated there is no... [Note: Source 1 text cuts off at 'no ...' before finishing the sentence. Per strict rules, I must only state what appears.] Source 1 explicitly says 'there are no...' and then stops. It does not finish the thought like 'there are no other plans'. Therefore, any completion would be an invention. I must stop or repeat the cut-off fact accurately if it stands alone, or omit the incomplete sentence if no other context fills the gap from the provided text blocks.

Wait, let me re-evaluate the constraint: NEVER write vague placeholders... If you do not know the specific name, number or date, leave that statement out entirely and write about what the sources DO say. The sentence 'there are no...' is incomplete and provides no information other than the existence of a missing clause. Writing the end of that sentence would be inventing. Therefore, I will omit the incomplete fragment to comply with the rule against inventing facts when the source cuts off.

Back to verified facts: Source 1 reports a vessel was struck in the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday. A fire broke out onboard, and local authorities helped evacuate crew members. Ebrahim Azizi, head of Iran's national security committee, said 'No negotiations' until terms are met. Meanwhile, Source 2 notes the meeting in Salalah aims to strengthen security cooperation as part of a regional framework. The strait was previously free for all nations before the war between Iran and the U.S.-Israel began on February 28.

Iran has been blockading the waterway since the conflict started. Tehran seeks formal control, potentially charging fees for passage.
