Decreasing Strait of Hormuz activity amid peace uncertainty
Maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has declined to levels below the monthly average due to heightened tensions between the United States and Iran, with each side claiming control over the strait. The commander of Iran's Basij forces confirmed that the strait is "under Iran’s control and management," while Washington announced its ability to sustain an indefinite naval blockade against Iran and focused on economic pressure amid stalled ceasefire negotiations. Despite a slight increase in ship crossings, the rate remains below the monthly average of 12 ships, with 9 vessels passing through yesterday, Thursday. Nevertheless, shipping traffic through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait continues to remain steady.
