Israeli official criticizes emerging Iran deal, warns on Hormuz leverage

A senior Israeli official criticized the emerging agreement with Iran, saying it signals to Tehran that the Strait of Hormuz is a weapon as effective as a nuclear one. The official said Trump views the agreement as essentially economic, involving mutual opening of the Strait of Hormuz, with progress tied to removal of the nuclear program. However, it remains unclear what will happen after Phase A of the agreement.
