Iran closes Strait of Hormuz, Trump warns US may charge tolls if deal isn't reached

President Donald Trump warned commercial traffic and other nations that the United States could start collecting tolls for passage through the Strait of Hormuz. Tolls would be on the table, the president stated, if the peace deal with Iran is not completed within 60 days.

White House envoy Steve Witkoff is expected to travel to Switzerland and join President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner for negotiations with Iran over a potential nuclear agreement, a report said. 

The Israel Defense Forces also said it has been trading fire with Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon after a ceasefire was reached on Friday.
