The waterway is still caught in between rival blockades by both Iran and the US. The Security Council meeting comes amid a near-total collapse in shipping through the vital corridor. Diplomats are weighing new proposals from Tehran to reopen the strait in exchange for an end to the conflict. UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres issued an urgent appeal.
