Strait of Hormuz transit resumes

Strait of Hormuz transit resumes

The transit of the strategic waterway follows weeks of closure by Iran, which has caused the worst disruption to global energy supplies in history.

Tracking data indicates a slight uptick in commercial traffic, with Chinese and Greek supertankers also reportedly moving through the strait.

President Trump claimed on social media that US forces have begun 'clearing out' the channel, though Iranian officials have denied these assertions.

The reopening of this critical oil corridor remains a central point of contention in the ongoing negotiations in Islamabad.
