Strait of Hormuz ship traffic still near standstill, tracker reports
Original: SITREP "Hormuz remains effectively closed at 1% of pre-war transits on latest day (1 vessel vs 97 baseline), with 7-day
A shipping situation report says the Strait of Hormuz remains effectively closed, with just one vessel transiting on the latest day against a pre-war baseline of 97, and the seven-day average stuck at roughly 3%. Bab al-Mandab, by contrast, is holding at about 80% of pre-war traffic, averaging around 27 vessels per day. The figures point to a war-driven shutdown of the world's most important oil chokepoint.
Why now: The near-total closure of the Strait of Hormuz has major implications for global oil prices and shipping, following conflict in the region.
