Middle East3 sources3 countries🔦 Under-reported9m ago
Data released on Monday shows that maritime shipping through the Strait of Hormuz slowed significantly over the weekend. The slowdown follows recent attacks on tankers transiting near the strait last week, an incident that the United Arab Emirates reported involved three vessels.
According to shiptracking data, only five commodity vessels transited the strait on Saturday, with no vessels registered for the route on Sunday. The disruption in maritime traffic coincides with stalled diplomatic talks between the United States and Iran aimed at resolving the broader Middle East conflict.
