Maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remains higher than pre-US/Iran deal levels, despite a slight decrease from a peak on Monday. Data from the Kpler platform indicates sustained activity as of June 24th. This increase coincides with the commencement of an evacuation plan for approximately 11,000 mariners previously stranded in the Persian Gulf. The evacuation addresses ongoing regional tensions and potential risks to shipping. While traffic dipped from its highest point, it still exceeds previous norms, suggesting continued commercial activity. The coordinated evacuation effort signals a proactive response to the volatile situation in the region. Kpler’s data provides key insights into the impact of geopolitical events on global shipping lanes.
