Four commodity vessels, including two empty oil product tankers, entered the waterway, data from Kpler showed on Tuesday as of 0420 GMT.
Two vessels a small tanker laden with liquefied petroleum gas and another carrying residual fuels exited the Strait, the data showed. In pre-war days, about 130 to 140 ships typically transited the strait.
