Hormuz traffic remains constrained
Strait of Hormuz transit activity remained constrained over 5 to 7 June, with only eight monitored crossings across commercial and non-commercial traffic. The total was one below the single-day count on 4 June and 14 below the previous weekend, underscoring a break from stronger weekend permissive passage. All crossings used the Iranian Route, while only two sanctioned Iranian-flagged vessels transited, pointing to weak broader commercial participation.Â
A recent attack on an MSC containership has reinforced the fragile operating picture in the area. Against a more volatile diplomatic backdrop, the Strait is likely to remain open only under narrow, tightly managed conditions, and moving further away from stabilising or increasing flows.Â

MV Hondius is anchored off Praia, Cape Verde following a suspected #hantavirus outbreak on board. #MarineTraffic data indicates the Netherlands flagged passenger vessel departed Ushuaia, Argentina in early April and has spent around seven weeks at sea, including a call at the British overseas territory of Saint Helena. The ship was recorded arriving off Cape Verde on 3 May, where she remains at anchor. Three deaths have been reported during the voyage, and media reports indicate that authorities have not granted permission for passengers and crew to disembark as the situation continues to be monitored.
