TEHRAN, April 8 (Xinhua) -- Oil tankers have been suspended from passing through the Strait of Hormuz following Israeli attack on Lebanon, Iran's semi-official Fars news agency reported Wednesday.

The first ship passed through the Strait of Hormuz with Iran's "permission" after a U.S.-Iran truce took effect early on Wednesday, according to Iranian media. Ship-tracking service MarineTraffic also said on X that vessel movements resumed in the Strait of Hormuz following the ceasefire.
