Hormuz tanker traffic falls to lowest level in two months

Hormuz tanker traffic falls to lowest level in two months The number of tankers transiting the Strait of Hormuz has fallen over the past 24 hours to its lowest level in two months, as renewed fighting between the US and Iran and attacks on vessels heighten safety concerns. Shipping industry sources said vessels are increasingly switching off their public AIS tracking transponders, making it difficult to determine how many ships are moving. But according to tracking analysis from Kpler, oil and gas tanker traffic fell to its lowest level since 25 May.
