Maritime shipping tracker MarineTraffic says that a “continued directional imbalance” was observed in the Strait of Hormuz over the past 24 hours, with all 12 verified crossings travelling west to east and “no eastbound return traffic” recorded.

Citing data from Kpler, MarineTraffic adds, “Transit volumes rose slightly from the previous day, suggesting stable but gradually strengthening activity, though still below peaks earlier in the month.”
