Shipping patterns shift in Bab al-Mandeb and Hormuz
The article discusses the recent surge in maritime traffic through the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, where yesterday, Tuesday, saw the highest number of ships since July 19, with 39 vessels passing through. Today, Wednesday, five ships crossed, including giant oil tankers such as the Sophia and the Aframax Ocean Lorett. Conversely, data shows that ship movements through the Strait of Hormuz were lower, with only eight ships passing on Tuesday—five entering and three leaving—and just one vessel passing today, Wednesday. Sources indicate that China has held talks with Houthi authorities to enable its tankers to sail in the Red Sea. These figures serve as an indicator of escalating maritime tensions among international powers in the region, amid ongoing US-Iran negotiations over de-escalation, amidst increasing security and economic concerns.
