Oil tanker flow through Strait of Hormuz reaches peak despite mine threat
President Donald Trump announced a record 19 million barrels of oil flowed through the Strait of Hormuz, causing a drop in oil prices amid increased shipping traffic. This rise follows negotiations between the U.S. and Iran to reopen the key shipping route, which had been restricted due to Iranian mines and prior conflicts. While traffic has increased, it remains below pre-war levels, and oil prices have declined significantly, with benchmarks falling to their lowest levels since early March.
