Hormuz Strait main route at risk
Approximately 80 naval mines have caused the main passage in the Strait of Hormuz to be closed, forcing commercial ships and oil tankers to take alternative routes through Iranian and Omani waters. The report stated that maritime navigation is now managed via two fully open alternative routes, as mine clearance operations continue and military tensions between the United States and Iran continue to impact the security of navigation in the region. The strait is considered one of the most strategic global passages, due to the large portion of oil and gas exports that pass through it; any disruption can cause disturbances in the global energy markets.
