Windward, a maritime AI company that shares maritime updates, says that recovery in the Strait of Hormuz has “stalled”, AlJazeera reports.

In a social media post on X, it has said that on June 29, Strait of Hormuz traffic remained “well below pre-war levels”, reporting low transits and dark activity.

“Multiple sanctioned tankers moved through, including a second Iranian vessel in a week identified flying a false European flag,” it says, adding that “for now, only the US-assisted southern corridor under Project Freedom is keeping limited safe passage open.”

It reported that 16 cargo ships were inbound, and 23 outbound.
