Iran restricts Strait of Hormuz transit
Iran has imposed strict restrictions on navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, preventing the passage of 30 ships over the past week due to violations of instructions. Currently, maritime traffic is limited to a route approved by Iranian authorities, requiring prior coordination and payment of fees. Additionally, shipping activity and trade have sharply declined in the strait, impacting the transport of energy and international commerce through one of the world's most vital maritime corridors. The Iranian source confirmed that claims of mine clearance in the strait lack evidence or documentation from the United States. The strait is one of the most important routes for transporting oil and gas from the Gulf to global markets, posing risks to energy markets and international supply chains.
