The United States and Gulf countries are working on a draft U.N. resolution condemning Iran over the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a U.S. envoy said.
The move comes amid heightened regional tensions involving Iran, with the waterway remaining a critical chokepoint for global oil shipments.
Earlier, Iranian media reported that five people were killed after U.S. forces targeted two civilian boats heading toward Iran, according to regional broadcasters.
The reported incident could further escalate tensions, as diplomatic efforts continue at the United Nations to address the situation and prevent broader conflict.
Details on the draft resolution and the reported strike were not immediately available.
