Transit through the Strait of Hormuz nearly halted after targeting 4 ships
Since early October, there has been a sharp decline in vessel transits through the Strait of Hormuz, amid escalating security risks caused by attacks on commercial ships with unidentified projectiles. This has led to an almost complete halt in navigation through this strategic corridor. Marine tracking data shows a significant decrease in the number of ships passing through the Strait, with some signals disappearing due to ships turning off their Automatic Identification Systems (AIS) for security reasons—particularly in light of recurrent attacks targeting oil and gas tankers. This situation complicates operational surveillance and threatens global oil supplies, although some ships are still transiting despite the security challenges. Overall, there is a substantial drop in maritime traffic compared to pre-war levels.
