Voting will be held at the United Nations Security Council to determine the future of strategic Strait of Hormuz. The voting is scheduled for Tuesday morning local time.
Al Jazeera reported that, the vote will be on a revised proposal in the context of threats from Iran.
With the support of Gulf oil-exporting countries, Bahrain submitted a draft proposal two weeks ago.
While the initial draft included approval for the use of force to keep the Strait open, it was later weakened due to potential vetoes.
The latest draft calls on Iran to stop attacks on commercial ships and to refrain from obstructing freedom of navigation in the Strait.
However, it does not explicitly authorize the use of military force.
Provisions for escorting ships, if necessary, are also included.
