Strait of Hormuz traffic remains active, but recovery stays cautious Confirmed vessel activity through the Strait of Hormuz remained steady on 23 June, with 31 verified crossings recorded across commercial and energy-linked vessels. According to #MarineTraffic data, west-to-east movements dominated, while vessels continued to use a mix of Iranian, Omani, and IMO route patterns through the chokepoint. The Strait appears to remain operational under the US-Iran MoU framework, but continued dark-route activity and uncertainty beyond the current 60-day window suggest operators are still moving cautiously rather than returning to fully normal traffic patterns.
