Iran will “facilitate and expedite” humanitarian aid passing through the strait of Hormuz, its UN ambassador in Geneva has said.

Ali Bahreini said Tehran had accepted a request from the United Nations to safely allow aid and agricultural shipments through the waterway.

“This measure reflects Iran’s continued commitment to supporting humanitarian efforts and ensuring that essential aid reaches those in need without delay,” Bahreini said on X, hours after the UN announced a task force to address the ripple effects the war has had on aid delivery.
