In the last 24 hours, since the start of the two-week long ceasefire between Iran and the United States, not a single oil or natural gas tanker has transited the Strait of Hormuz, with a total of four bulk cargo vessels transiting the strait on Wednesday, the lowest number of daily crossings so far in April, according to data provided to The New York Times by the global ship-tracking firm Kpler.
This is despite several claims by the White House that there had been an “increase in traffic” today through the Hormuz Strait, while Iranian state-run media channels once again threaten to “fully close” the strait due to continued and intensified strikes by Israel against the Hezbollah terrorist group and civil infrastructure in Lebanon, which Wednesday alone killed over a dozen residents in Southern and Central Lebanon.
