Hormuz transits remain very risky, shipping association says

Hormuz transits remain very risky, shipping association says Shipping association BIMCO said on Monday it still considers commencing transiting the Strait of Hormuz very risky for ships at this point. It said that the security situation for the shipping industry remains volatile, and the threat of mines in the Strait of Hormuz is a concern. The resumption of maritime traffic should ideally be directed by a neutral body, such as the United Nations, the group added.
