Shipping data shows 'cautiously' increasing traffic in Strait of Hormuz

Published June 24, 2026 Updated June 24, 2026 08:04pm

Shipping monitor Kpler says that 31 verified crossings occurred across the Strait of Hormuz in the past 24 hours.

“West-to-east movements dominated, while Iranian, Omani and IMO (International Maritime Organisation) routes all remained in use,” Kpler says on X.

“The Strait appears operational under the US-Iran MoU, but dark-route activity and uncertainty beyond the 60-day window keep the recovery cautious,” it adds.
