Ahead of negotiations in Switzerland, The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps has said vessels should not approach the strait of Hormuz else their security would be at risk. Iran shut the shipping lane on Saturday, saying that Israeli strikes in Lebanon constituted a breach of the preliminary ceasefire, agreed between the US and Israel on Wednesday. Iranian and American delegations are set to meet in Switzerland on Sunday to work out their interim agreement to end the war. Story by Caroline Baum and Camille Corcoran.
