Mediators are working to arrange a new ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran, according to reporting cited by @KobeissiLetter. The mediators are concerned that the two countries could settle into a pattern of limited conflict that avoids all-out war but continues to disrupt regional economies.
Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has fallen to about 10 ships per day. Qatar has proposed a 10-day ceasefire that would also lift restrictions on shipping through the strait. Brent crude oil prices are trading around $90 per barrel.
