The Strait of Hormuz experienced a slowdown in maritime traffic following attacks targeting oil tankers, leading to nearly a complete halt of shipping activity compared to the previous week. Only 5 ships passed through during Saturday and Sunday, compared to 31 ships at the beginning of the week. Tensions between Iran and the United States are escalating, with Washington continuing to impose a naval blockade on Iran since mid-July. The strait is a strategic point through which approximately 11% of global trade passes, and there are increasing concerns about the risks to shipping movement resulting from the military and political escalation in the region.
