Doar șase nave au traversat Strâmtoarea Ormuz, marți. Transportatorii evită ruta strategică
Maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has slowed down as ship owners avoid the route due to uncertainty following the Iran conflict. On Tuesday, only six vessels crossed the strait, a decrease from nine the previous day and below the recent average of eleven. The U.S. President stated that the strait remains open, contradicting Iran's claims of a blockade. Concerns over security have led major Chinese shipping companies to keep their tankers away from the strait since late July. Meanwhile, traffic through the Bab al-Mandeb Strait has increased, with 30 vessels reported over the weekend.
