Maritime Traffic Declines After Iran Closes Strait
Iran has announced the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz once again, leading to a sharp decline in commercial ship traffic passing through the strait, with the number of ships dropping from 26 on Saturday to 5 on Sunday. The ships included giant oil tankers heading to Japan and other countries. This closure came in response to Israeli and American violations of the peace agreement, after Iran had temporarily lifted its blockade last week as part of an understanding with the United States to extend the ceasefire for 60 days. According to data from Klever, the departing ships included oil tankers from Gulf states, while U.S. military forces confirmed that commercial ships continued to operate in the region.
