Ten ships transit Strait of Hormuz
The article discusses the movement of ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz, where the number of vessels transiting increased to 10 on Wednesday from 7 the previous day. However, this remains below the decade-long average of around 17 ships due to escalating tensions and disagreements between Iran and the United States. Data shows that some ships carrying various cargos, such as metals and grains, have departed the Strait while others—either empty or loaded with gas—have entered. Amid ongoing political tensions between Tehran and Washington, the latter is considering responses to Iran’s proposals aimed at lifting the siege on Iran and reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Additionally, ship transits through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait have also decreased amid rising naval attacks. Shipping costs have surged to over $1.2 million per day as tensions in the region continue to escalate.
