Reuters, citing data from Kpler, said that traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has risen slightly compared with the previous days, but remains in the single digits.

Based on this report, on Monday, 26 Mordad, six ships transited the Strait of Hormuz; of these, three ships were outbound from the Persian Gulf and three ships were entering it.

This comes as on Saturday, three ships had transited the waterway, and on Sunday only two ships had passed through.

Reuters said that on Monday, no very large tanker carrying crude oil or a liquefied natural gas carrier transited via this route; however, it is possible that some ships transited the Strait of Hormuz after switching off their transmitters and were therefore not included in these figures.
