Shipping Passes Bab el-Mandeb vs Hormuz
Maritime traffic in the Bab al-Mandeb and Strait of Hormuz corridors has remained relatively stable. Yesterday, 20 ships passed through the Bab al-Mandeb, including 12 oil tankers and 8 bulk cargo ships, with no change from previous days, amid uncertainty surrounding the talks between the U.S. and Iran. In the Strait of Hormuz, 6 ships transited—3 oil tankers and 3 bulk carriers—down from the previous day, amid warnings of threats from the Houthis and calls for caution, as some vessels continue to experience disruptions in their transmitting and receiving systems. The United States confirmed that the temporary pause in attacking Iran is linked to ongoing negotiations aimed at resolving differences over control of the strait, while Iran denied the existence of any official negotiations or specific meetings so far.
