Shipping traffic through Hormuz remains muted with no US-Iran deal in sight, data shows

At ​least seven ​ships - mainly dry ‌bulk vessels - ​crossed the Strait of Hormuz in ‌the past 24 hours, in line with muted activity in recent days, shipping data showed ‌on Monday, while talks between ‌Iran and the United States have stalled.

The vessels included ships leaving from Iraqi ports ⁠and ​one dry bulk ⁠vessel from an Iranian port, according to ⁠ship tracking data from Kpler and separate ​satellite analysis from data analytics specialists SynMax.

Shipping ⁠traffic passing through the crucial waterway ⁠at the ​entrance to the Gulf during an uneasy ceasefire between Washington and ⁠Tehran represents a fraction of the average ⁠140 daily ⁠passages before the Iran war began on February 28.
