Hormuz maritime traffic hits two-month low
The number of ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz has fallen to its lowest level in over two months, reaching just seven ships on Tuesday. This comes as attacks on oil tankers last week reached an unprecedented level since the outbreak of the war between the United States and Israel over Iran. Despite this, oil exports from the Gulf of Oman and the Red Sea increased to 6.7 million barrels per day, more than double pre-war levels, offsetting the decline in supplies through the strait and maintaining regional oil export levels. Maritime data also showed variations: a slight increase in the number of ships passing through, some with tracking devices turned off to avoid detection, contrasted with a significant decrease in maritime activity due to heightened security concerns.
