Summary
At least 42 commodity vessels -- including tankers carrying oil, gas, and dry bulk such as fertilisers -- crossed on Thursday, Kpler's tracking platform showed, down from a high of 57 on Wednesday. Half of the 42 vessels used a southern passageway hugging the coast of Oman. Shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz slowed on Friday after a Taiwanese-operated vessel came under attack near Oman.
Furthermore, Why has the UN paused plans to evacuate sailors from the Strait of Hormuz?. Iran claims the Oman corridor was opened without consulting Tehran, and has warned vessels against using it. Tehran reasserted its claim over the Strait of Hormuz and warned Gulf states after a joint US-Gulf statement rejected Iranian toll demands, while reports said tankers were turned back by the IRGC.
