as posted by the channelProfessor Mohammad Marandi, an expert on American studies at the University of Tehran, joins Rania Khalek to break down the 10-day Lebanon-Israel ceasefire that took effect on April 17 — and Iran's announcement that the Strait of Hormuz is now "completely open for the remaining period of the ceasefire."
