UN: 6,000 Sailors Stranded in Hormuz
The International Maritime Organization, a UN agency, estimates that around 6,000 sailors remain stranded in the Strait of Hormuz six months after the conflict between the United States and Iran began. This is a decrease from approximately 20,000 sailors aboard 2,000 ships before the escalation. The vital waterway, through which 20% of the world's oil supplies pass, remains largely closed to navigation, negatively impacting global supply chains and increasing the danger and uncertainty faced by mariners. The organization warned that the conflict has led to over 70 attacks on ships, resulting in the deaths of 19 sailors. It emphasized the need to strengthen political cooperation to ensure the right of passage through the strait.
